The purpose of this research was to evaluate the arrangements made regarding risk management in higher education institutions. Higher education institutions face various issues and challenges every day, such as natural disasters, rain, floods, earthquakes, cold and heat, traffic problems in rainy days, sexual harassment problems in institutions, fights, prejudice, financial problems, Political and social issues, educational issues of children were included. To achieve this goal, 200 participants were selected from 50 higher education institutions of Punjab, their opinions on these matters were known, then the results were obtained by applying various state tests to the obtained data. The results were not satisfactory, in some institutions there was no formal risk management cell, only a risk management committee, which was slow and lazy, did not do any work on merit and political pressure seemed to prevail over the committee. It is recommended that a formal risk management cell be established in higher education institutions to address all these issues by making independent decisions without any pressure.
