Central to Evaluating Risk & Opportunity.
CCSU’s MS in Mathematics: Actuarial Science prepares students for work in life, health, and property casualty insurance as well as consulting firms and government agencies analyzing risk and solving financial problems. Coursework covers a substantial portion of the material on the first four examinations of the Society of Actuaries and the Casualty Actuarial Society.
The program provides a deep understanding of the mathematical foundations of actuarial work and the ability to construct deterministic and stochastic models. Graduates are prepared for the P and FM exam along with partial preparation of IFM, STAM and LTAM. For those that enter with some exams passed there are a large range of courses in statistics and data science that can be taken.
