Enterprise Risk Management

Mission

The mission of the Office of Enterprise Risk Management and Administration (ERM) is to serve as a University partner with faculty, staff, and students to manage risk across strategic, operational, financial, compliance, safety, reputation, branding, and external areas. ERM's goal is to help DSU maintain a formal, sustainable, robust, and thorough risk culture.

ERM Key Priorities

• Develop and communicate the risk culture across the enterprise
• Support responsible, sustainable growth within the defined risk appetite
• Establish a formal, centralized process to capture and track new issues
• Finalize an action plan to remediate the Top 10 key risks/issues identified
• Enhance reporting capabilities in risk data and metrics
• Communicate, educate, and engage key stakeholders in the ERM process

Through a University-wide effort to manage risk, DSU can reduce the chance of losses, increase operational efficiency, and support the University's strategic plan.

ERM Risk Framework

The ERM Risk Framework provides a coordinated and strategic methodology for managing risk. See also Title IX.
