EDHEC-Risk and Coursera Trailblazers in their Respective Fields
Part of EDHEC Business School and established in 2001, EDHEC-Risk Institute has become the premier academic centre for industry-relevant financial research.
In partnership with large financial institutions, its team of permanent professors, engineers, and support staff, together with research associates and affiliate professors, implements seven research programmes and six research chairs, industrial partnerships and private research projects focusing on asset allocation and risk management.
Additionally, it has developed an ambitious portfolio of research and educational initiatives in the domain of investment solutions for institutional and individual investors.
As part of its “Make an Impact” signature, EDHEC-Risk plays a noted role in furthering applied financial research and systematically highlighting its practical uses.
Institute
Coursera was founded in 2012 by two Stanford Computer Science professors who wanted to share their knowledge and skills with the world.
Professors Daphne Koller and Andrew Ng put their courses online for anyone to take - and taught more learners in a few months than they could have in an entire lifetime in the classroom. As of 2018, Coursera has 40 million learners.
Since then, they’ve built a platform where anyone, anywhere can learn and earn credentials from the world’s top universities and education providers.
