Course summary
The future is uncertain, but statistics can reveal ways to measure risk. Study this accredited course to learn how. Imagine being able to predict the future. Not by using a crystal ball, but with numbers. To become an actuary, you’ll need a combination of mathematical expertise, specialist knowledge and drive to make a difference. Taught by experts with many years of industry experience, our programme is accredited by the Institute and Faculty of Actuaries (IFoA). Our research covers everything from geometry and analysis to algebra and number theory. As well as mathematics, you’ll unravel areas like probability, actuarial and financial mathematics, and business economics. All of this will mean you’ll be exempt from up to six of the seven Core Principles exams, so you’ll be on your way to becoming a qualified actuary with the Institute and Faculty of Actuaries. Kickstarting your career We’ve always got your future in mind. As part of our Actuarial Professional Development module, which you’ll take in your first and second year, professional actuaries come to campus to talk about their career path. Past speakers have worked at organisations including the Institute and Faculty of Actuaries, EY, Aviva and the Financial Conduct Authority. Students studying within The School of Mathematical Sciences have secured placements at EY, Goldman Sachs and Renault. After graduating, you might work as an actuarial analyst, auditor, actuarial consultant or data science consultant. This career path is the perfect way to turn numbers into new insights and shape understanding of risk. This degree is currently accredited by the Institute and Faculty of Actuaries (IFoA). Successful students gain exemptions from up to six of the seven Core Principles examinations under the new IFoA Curriculum 2019.Find out more about the professional qualifications required for an actuarial career.
