Zell
Center for Risk Research
The
goal of the Zell Center for Risk Research is to promote the
study and understanding of the way people perceive risk, the
effects of these perceptions, and the management of risk.
The center will do this in two ways: first, by encouraging
academic research in this area; and second, through facilitating
the communication of the results of this research to a wide
audience of academics, students and practitioners.
To encourage academic research in this area, particularly
among Kellogg School faculty, the center provides financial
support for faculty research. Center visitors are invited
to speak and present materials to stimulate thinking in this
field and work with Kellogg School faculty in producing new
ideas.
The
center also supports the communication of relevant academic
research to students, practitioners, and faculty in a number
of ways, including sponsoring academic and student-led conferences,
supporting the development of a curriculum focused on risk,
providing scholarships for students pursuing studies in risk,
and supporting the Kellogg School’s Asset Management
Practicum.
