Lee Business School Launches Nevada’s First Insurance and Risk Management Degree Program

Las Vegas, NV – In response to a significant impending workforce shift, the Lee Business School has unveiled a groundbreaking Bachelor of Science in Business Administration (BSBA) in Insurance and Risk Management. With projections indicating that half of the current insurance professionals will retire within 10-15 years, this program aims to bridge the talent gap.

Launching in fall 2025, the inaugural cohort can benefit from scholarships up to $20,000, courtesy of the Nevada Surplus Lines Foundation. This unique program is the first of its kind in Nevada and among the few in the western United States, offering critical courses in underwriting, claims management, and risk mitigation.

Housed in the Department of Finance, the curriculum emphasizes both analytical and communication skills, preparing graduates for high-demand roles such as risk analysts and brokers, with starting salaries estimated between $80,000 and $100,000. The program is backed by the newly established Kerestesi Center for Insurance and Risk Management, which provides students with networking opportunities, internships, and professional development.

Applications are currently open for aspiring students eager to enter a vital industry. For more information, contact john.starkey@unlv.edu.
