Energy Risk Management
|
Although
many positions in the energy sector are involved in energy
trading and risk management, often the technical analysis
done for companies is done in a practical but unscientific
manner. The NYMEX Energy Risk Management (ERM)
Certificate from the Bauer College provides
the underlying financial theory and economic underpinnings
necessary to rationally manage risk in the energy sector.
Students take a set of three courses designed to provide
them with the essential principles of Energy Derivatives
Trading. Each student combines that knowledge with
an additional set of courses in Project Investment Analysis
or Energy Industry Economics. |

What do past students think of the Program?
“The ERM Program at the University of Houston has
enabled me to work closely and learn from high-caliber professors
as well as good students who represent a cross-section of energy
firms. The program has definitely stimulated my intellectual
curiosity towards learning more and analyzing the many urgent
issues that our industry is facing. I recommend the program
for those who want to grow in the industry and become future
leaders.” — Raja Ramachandran, ERM
