As an initiative of the Engineering Systems Division, we take a systemic perspective on risk management that stretches from optimizing engineering to shaping societal impact. We innovate at the intersection of safety and risk management, engineering systems design thinking, and project management. We work within four major research areas:
- Smart Safety
- Resilient Projects
- De-Risking Strategy
- Public Risk Perception
In each of those areas, we focus our efforts on novel, paradigm-shifting approaches. Across our research areas, we leverage our deep technical expertise in the fields such as risk and safety management; advanced qualitative, probabilistic and non-probabilistic risk quantification; resilience theory; project risk management; and risk perception.
A selection of our project partners
We regularly conduct research projects with our partners in industry and public administration through master theses, PhD projects, directly and externally sponsored projects. Here you can see a selection of some of our close collaboration partners.
