The research paper is for Risk Management & Insurance course and it needs at least 3 sources.
Thoughts-Suggestions on Presentations/Projects:
Topic:
1. Pick a topic of choice, including ideas from articles or presented list. Topic(s) should be related to the
course material and/or be related to risk as it relates to the course descriiption. The paper is to be no
more than 10 pages; however, no less than five. I expect the paper to have at least three (3) cited
sources and would like electronic presentation (i.e., PowerPoint, Google slide) to accompany the
paper. You are welcome to work in groups up to four or individually. Should you decide to work in a
group, only one paper and presentation is required.
