Course offerings provide the knowledge and techniques needed by students to prepare to write the Society of Actuaries examinations. Students will learn the relevant mathematical and statistical techniques, with specific applications to Actuarial Science, and acquire a basic understanding of Economics and Business.
- Students who wish to study Actuarial Science in conjunction with another subject may wish to pursue a Combined Honours degree program. The other subject may be any discipline from the Faculty of Science, the Faculty of Arts and Social Sciences, the Faculty of Computer Science, or the College of Sustainability.
