About the course
Actuaries manage risk through the use of mathematics, statistics, and financial theory. While the majority of actuaries work for insurance companies, opportunities also exist within consulting firms, employee benefits departments, banks and investment firms, hospitals, government, and other organizations. There are two professional organizations for actuaries: the Society of Actuaries and the Casualty Actuarial Society. The Society of Actuaries (SOA) deals with life, health, and pensions. The Casualty Actuarial Society (CAS) deals with property, casualty liability, and data breaches. Certificate programs are taken in conjunction with, not in place of, majors. They are meant to supplement a student?s chosen area of study and to formalize into a coherent whole by comprising courses taken outside of the major. Scholarships - View all scholarships Internships
