St. John’s awards undergraduate, M.B.A., and M.S. degrees in insurance, risk management, and actuarial science. Through its Tobin Center for Executive Education, the University provides education, training, and consulting services to industry, governments, and regulators worldwide. The GSRM is also home to the Kathryn and Shelby Cullom Davis Library, which houses the world’s largest and most comprehensive insurance collection.
