About the Laboratory
Since the catastrophe of the 1995 Great Hanshin Awaji Earthquake and the subway sarin case, the word/concept of "risk management" has become widely recognized. Society is constantly under threat of large-scale disasters, crimes, terrorism and security threats. The word "unexpected" has been issued by people who manage and control the disaster of the nuclear power plant accident associated with the Great East Japan Earthquake (2011). Therefore, in the modern society where the crisis are diverse and involve crisis such as war, disaster, crime, terrorism, cyber-attack and information outflow and for the purpose of nurturing human resources who can think of risk management independently by eliminating unexpected events , the Nihon University Risk Management Department was formed in April 2016 and in December of 2016, the Risk Management Research Institute was established as a research institution that researches a large variety of risks. As a research institute, in order to deepen risk management science, a new academic field, we will be publishing in the journal "Risk Management Science Research" launched in March 2005, which focuses on the research results of the institute members. We will continue to communicate the importance of Risk management to a wide audience through symposium and other various methods.
