Students will conduct a comprehensive literature review (research) and investigate a specific risk management topic on behalf of a Client (business organization).Any potential gaps between the literature and the practical application of the Client’s proposed topic will be identified and recommendations made for improvement.Note: The class size will be updated, to represent the total # of students who actually select and complete a project with a Riipen partnering organization.
