Greenberg School of Risk Science

The Maurice R. Greenberg School of Risk Science was founded in 1953 by a group of young and innovative scholars led by Kenneth Black Jr. Today; we are one of the largest and finest centers of risk management education and research in the world. The School is ranked #3 nationally for its undergraduate program in Risk Management and Insurance according to U.S. News and World Report and is ranked #3 in actuarial science research among all North American business schools in the University of Nebraska - Lincoln rankings. The School is a Center for Actuarial Excellence from the Society of Actuaries. The School has strong ties to industry that have supported approximately $22m in fundraising since 2019, including a $15m naming gift from the Starr Foundation that led its name to change from the Department of Risk Management and Insurance to the Maurice R. Greenberg School of Risk Science.

Cutting-Edge Research: Our faculty members conduct research on the economic analysis of risk in its broadest sense. We study decision-making under risk and uncertainty at the individual, institutional, and societal levels. For example, we examine how individuals make personal financial planning decisions under conditions of uncertainty. At the institutional level, we study how firms and financial intermediaries such as banks and insurance companies evaluate and manage risk. At the societal level, we analyze how governmental and private regulatory agencies manage aggregate risk exposures and allocate risk across society through laws and regulations. Consistent with our broad research vision, our faculty possess diverse academic backgrounds in economics, finance, law, applied mathematics, and statistics.

WHAT MAKES Risk Management And Insurance A GREAT PLACE?

  • A flexible work environment
  • Generous benefits, including health, dental, vision, tuition assistance, retirement, etc.
  • A knowledge-sharing organization that works collaboratively with diverse partners.
  • Professional development opportunity and mentorship
