Program Summary
The Mathematics with Actuarial Science Emphasis major is designed to prepare students to work in risk analysis for large corporations, government agencies, and insurance companies. Students are prepared through coursework to be able to pass two or more exams from the Society of Actuaries. As is typical in this field, they can be employed after graduation while they continue to study for and pass all exams necessary to become fully-credentialed actuaries. Talented majors with this emphasis can often find employment directly after graduation without passing actuarial exams.
Program Information
- All courses must be passed with a “C” (2.0) or better to be counted in the major.
Program Prerequisites
The Department of Mathematics strongly recommends that students complete the following courses as part of their General Education requirements, as they are prerequisites for required major courses. Students who do not complete these courses as part of General Education can potentially add additional credits and time to their degree.
* Note: Students who are not prepared for this math course may need additional math credits/preparation. Please consult your Student Success Advisor for more information.
