Insurance and Risk Management Events

The Center for Insurance and Risk Management, in cooperation with various insurance industry companies, sponsors several different events throughout the year. These events are intended to give students an opportunity to learn more about the industry and careers, and to meet and network with industry executives.

Launching in the 2022-23 academic year, Risky Talks is designed to spark student interest in risk management and is open to all Lindner students. The center welcomes speakers from leading firms to discuss relevant issues in the field of risk management.

The goal of the Professional Career Panel series is to educate students about the rich variety of satisfying and rewarding careers in insurance and risk management.  By allowing students to have candid conversations with industry professionals about the day-to-day and long-range opportunities and challenges they face in their careers, students are better able to understand the critical importance of risk management, insurance, and financial services to businesses and in one’s family and personal life, and examine whether a career in insurance, risk management, or financial services is a good fit with their skills and goals. To highlight the variety of roles and differences across firms, panels consist of three or four professionals from different firms, in different roles, at different points in their career.
