About the course

The Department of Statistical and Actuarial Sciences understands how important your dreams and aspirations are, and knows they are as unique as you.

　　In statistical and actuarial sciences and financial modelling, you collect, analyze, and model data through mathematical and computing systems. We encourage contact and interaction between our students and faculty. Faculty members' offices, most of our classrooms, and one of the best equipped computing labs on campus are located on the 2nd floor of the Western Science Centre (aka Paterson Building). The Actuarial & Statistical Undergraduate Association (ASUA) organizes seminars, study groups, and social events.

　　The future is full of uncertainty. Some of the events that can happen are undesirable. Risk is the possibility that an undesirable event will occur. Actuaries are experts in:

　　evaluating the likelihood of future events

　　designing creative ways to reduce the likelihood of undesirable events

　　decreasing the impact of undesirable events that do occur

　　The impact of undesirable events can be both emotional and financial. Reducing the likelihood of these events helps relieve emotional pain. But some events, such as death, cannot be totally avoided. So, reducing their financial impact is very important. Actuaries are the leading professionals in finding ways to manage risk. It takes a combination of strong analytical skills, business knowledge, and an understanding of human behaviour to design and manage programs that control risk.
