Course description

This course explores the tools and methodologies necessary to enable students to undertake a full risk management analysis, assessment and evaluation of different scenarios and case studies, and introduce the concept of project and portfolio management to mitigate climate change. The course aligns with present day standards in risk management and uses case studies to underline the key principles involved. Students will gain an understanding of the core functions of risk management and project management, including cost, time, quality, scope, procurement, communication and lifecycle integration, and how this is applied to carbon management.
