University Risk Management
The Office of Risk Management is dedicated to managing, mitigating, and proactively addressing risks and uncertainties that may affect SWAG视频鈥檚 operations and objectives.
Our office works to identify areas of risk and potential liability; and develop risk response strategies to mitigate loss and maximize opportunities.
We provide advice on risk-related matters, establish the University鈥檚 risk financing and insurance strategy and assist in the development of programs, policies and best practices to reduce the University鈥檚 total cost of risk. We work with the College鈥檚 and Operating Units to identify various risks from people, assets, fiscal and strategic operations, apply appropriate risk management strategies and enhance awareness of risks.
