Welcome from the examiner!

Welcome to the course!

This course provides an introduction to social theories of risk, combined with applied lectures and workshops. You will explore how risks can be identified, evaluated, and managed in order to prevent crises in business and public administration. All essential information about the course is available on the course site in Canvas (which you will get access to shortly before the course starts), where you will find the schedule and other study-related details. Please make sure to have access to the course literature before the course starts.

We look forward to meeting you!
