Actuarial Science is the study of problems of insurance and finance through mathematical modeling. Actuaries develop theoretical models to evaluate the current financial implications of uncertain future events. As such, actuaries require a strong mathematical background supplemented by work in business, finance and economics.

To become fully accredited as an actuary, one must pass a series of rigorous examinations administered by the Society of Actuaries [SOA] and the Casualty Actuarial Society [CAS]. Our program provides preparation for the first two examinations and most of the third.

News: Our Actuarial Science program began in 2002, with our first degrees conferred in 2005. Our traditional actuarial graduates have had 100% job placement!

News: Our Students have obtained internships at Nationwide Financial, Nationwide Insurance, Grange Insurance Company, Avalon Benefit Services, Demotech Inc, Merrill Lynch, and Regis Securities Corp.
