Master of Science in Risk Management Program for Executives

AIF made news[2] with the announcement of a joint-venture with NYU's Stern School of Business to offer a Master of Science in Risk Management Program for Executives degree. This is a one-year, part-time program divided into five on-site class sessions (modules) at NYU Stern in New York and two rotating global locations, including Amsterdam. Distance learning techniques are used between the modules. The program incorporates traditional and innovative modeling techniques, but aims to situate this knowledge within the larger context of business strategy and risk management.[3] Further program details are also provided through MasterStudies.com [4]
