Gamma Students!

We’re excited to share that the 2026 Spencer Risk Management Challenge case study has officially been released!

UHD hasn’t yet formed a team, there’s still time to join this exciting international competition and represent your school on a global stage.


What Is the Spencer Risk Management Challenge?

Student teams analyze a real-world risk management case, identify major risks, and develop a comprehensive risk management report with proposed solutions.

A panel of industry experts will evaluate all reports and select the top eight teams, who will be invited—with Spencer-sponsored travel—to present their findings at the RIMS 2026 Annual Conference (RISKWORLD) in Philadelphia, PA.

 

Why Participate

  • Gain hands-on experience solving real risk management problems.

  • Collaborate with your peers and strengthen your analytical and presentation skills.

  • Network with leading professionals at the RIMS Annual Conference.

  • Compete for cash prizes and international recognition.
