The primary objective of this course is to introduce students to 
the emerging and rapidly evolving concept of Enterprise Risk 
Management (ERM). Corporations today face a wider array of risks
than ever before, and investors, regulators and other parties
demand that management understand and manage these risks in the
most effective and efficient manner possible.  This is the goal
of Enterprise Risk Management. The first part of the course will
focus on the fundamentals of risk, risk management, and ERM,
including an extensive analysis of why corporations bother to
manage risk at all. The second part of the course introduces a
variety of recently developed ERM tools available to management.
Finally, the last part of the course covers the ERM
implementation process, explores some applications of ERM, and
considers the future outlook for ERM.
