Master Degree in Marine Insurance and Risk Management

For information on
The Master of Arts in Marine Insurance & Risk Management programme see the Scandinavian Institute of Maritime Law web site:
http://www.uio.no/studier/program/mirm-master/
 
The Master of Arts in Marine Insurance & Risk Management is an experience-based qualification designed for practitioners in the field of marine insurance and other risk-related sectors in the maritime industry. The programme focuses on challenging topics in the areas of marine insurance law, marine insurance claims adjusting, economic risk management and maritime technical risk management.

This three-year, part-time Master of Arts programme has been established at the request of the Central Union of Marine Underwriters (CEFOR) to cater for the steady increase in demand in the shipping industry for advanced education within marine insurance. The master�s programme results from interdisciplinary cooperation between educational institutions in the Scandinavian countries and carries a tuition fee. The participating educational institutions are the University of Oslo, the Norwegian University of Science and Technology, the University of Gothenburg and Copenhagen Business School.
 
The next Master of Arts in Marine Insurance and Risk Management programme is scheduled to start in the spring term 2010. More information on the programme will be published here in due course.
