MET AD 616 Enterprise Risk Analytics
MET AD 616, Enterprise Risk Analytics, offers a quantitative approach to estimating and managing risk across various industries. The major risk categories of enterprise risk management—financial risk, strategic risk, and operational risk—will be discussed, and risk analytics approaches for each of these risks will be covered. Students will learn how to use interlinked data-inputs, analytics models, business statistics, optimization techniques, simulation, and decision-support tools. This course extensively utilizes statistical concepts along with an in-depth treatment of risk using R programming language. Specifically, the course will focus on covering Input Modeling techniques with uncertainty, Stochastic Optimization, Decision Trees with uncertainty, and Bayesian Inference in determining causality and input processes. The course also covers introductory level Stochastic Programming concepts associated with 2-stage stochastic decision problems. Finally, the course has a final team project where each team will take up a real business case with data across industries ranging from Private Equity, Healthcare, Venture Capital, and Supply Chain; solve the case as a team; and make a presentation on the decisions made, taking uncertainty and risk into consideration.
