Illinois State University- Redbird Risk Management Challenge

Illinois State University invites the best that the Midwest and beyond has to offer to compete in a weeklong risk management challenge held at the Katie School of Insurance and Risk Management on the ISU campus from July 7 through July 12, 2024. Teams assume the roles of senior risk management professionals and are asked to guide their corporation through a minefield of potential disasters. Losses may occur without notice - and have the potential to greatly setback your corporations ability to operate. The only alternative to bankruptcy is for your team to correctly assess the impact of these perils and implement superior risk management strategies. The winning team is determined by which corporation generates the most profit by the end of the week. This experience is challenging and requires teams to think creatively and stay resourceful. We have fun too! In the evenings there are structured social activities such as bowling, mini-golf, and other competitive activities designed to build camaraderie and help earn additional revenue for your “companies”. Students stay in a dorm on the Illinois State University campus while in the program, allowing them to experience what it is like to live on a college campus. Special student guides and programming are arranged for students during the evening. APPLICATION WILL BE AVAILABLE SHORTLY Please contact Program Coordinator Kylie at kmaurer@ilstu.edu with any questions.
