To analyze the risk in higher education in the Netherlands, considering the risks inherent to universities, society, and education as an organization by means of field research. |
The results (derived from questionnaires, meetings, and interviews) show that the higher education institutions do not yet have an integrated security, protection, and crisis management policy. Institutions, staff, and students have limited awareness of the range of risks to which they and their environment are exposed. |

To increase the importance of reputational risk in the organizations. |
In the context of universities, there are both specific transformations in organizational practices and a growing generalized concern about reputational risk. |

To examine to what extent the main participants in Australian public universities have developed and implemented risk management in an environment of change management. |
The discoveries show that wider influences - largely a result of conflicting management cultures - have had different impacts on the values of the main players and on the consequent adoption of the process. |

To verify how information security risk management features in a federal public institution according to the perception of the information technology managers. The study was applied in the Federal Institute of Science and Technology of São Paulo. |
The results found show the importance of the roles performed by the people, the responsibilities, the development of policies, norms, and procedures, and their implementation, seeking greater control over risks, as well as the various opportunities that involve information technology security. |

To compare the risk management methodologies presented by the Comptroller General’s Office and by the Ministry of Planning, Development, and Science and to verify the possibility of adapting these to university management. |
It is possible to apply the methodologies to the risk management of university institutions, but there is a need for adaptation, respecting the particularities of university management. |

To propose to investigate, identify, and analyze possible risks that can impact the academic planning of a public university, enabling a contingency plan to be created to mitigate and reduce the impacts on an academic semester. |
Risks in university environments can cause various impacts on the academic semester; research applied using stakeholders could be an efficient mechanism for identifying and prioritizing these risks. Identifying the impact and probability of the risks could provide academic managers with a quicker response to the problems identified. |

To explore the possibility of applying the enterprise risk management structure in higher education in China based on that structure. |
It is necessary to strengthen the self-regulation of the universities based on external supervision of the administrative departments of education and form a prevention and control mechanism that combines academics, governments, and social multi-subjects, as well as broadly identifying and analyzing various risks, so that the cooperative universities can effectively avoid or control all types of risks. |

To develop tools for managing processes and risk management at the Eloy Alfaro Secular University of Manabi. |
The application of a checklist enabled it to be confirmed that there are inadequacies and opportunities for improvement in the dimensions of direction, strategy, and design in preparing the university for risk management, the integrated management of risks, and implementation and control. |

To demonstrate a method for identifying and evaluating risks by mapping processes, aiming to contribute to risk management in one department of the Federal University of Mato Grosso do Sul. |
A risk matrix was developed with indicators that were able to reveal the level of risks that the unit is willing to bear and seek new ways of addressing them and mitigating them. |
