About the course
This program offers a well-balanced curriculum in applied mathematics with advanced preparation for the actuarial profession. Traditionally, the majority of actuaries work in careers associated with the insurance industry. An increasing number of actuaries work in the broader financial services sector including commercial and investment banking and retirement funds. Actuaries are also employed by corporations, as well as by state and federal governments. Actuaries in the U.S. and Canada achieve professional status by passing a set of challenging examinations administered by the Society of Actuaries (SOA) and by the Casualty Actuarial Society (CAS). Many prospective actuaries begin sitting for these exams while still in college. This program offers courses with syllabi that ly match those for Exams P, FM, and LTAM as well as two seminars designed specifically to prepare the students to take exams P and FM. In addition, actuaries must satisfy the Validation by Educational Experience (VEE) requirement by earning credit for several approved college courses. Scholarships - View all scholarships Internships
