An actuary is a finance specialist who applies quantitative methods to develop and evaluate insurance plans and retirement benefits. These professionals work for insurers, public sector entities, healthcare providers, major businesses, and advisory services.
The Actuarial Studies Certificate equips both undergraduate and graduate students for actuarial professions. The curriculum gives learners the foundational understanding required to pass multiple professional actuarial examinations and earn Validation by Educational Experience (VEE) certification, essential for achieving Associate status with either the Society of Actuaries (SOA) or Casualty Actuarial Society (CAS). Credits from the Actuarial Studies Certificate can be applied toward a Mathematics Bachelor's degree. Certificate candidates benefit from UNC Charlotte's Actuarial Science program resources, including employer workshops, professional actuarial talks, and career-building opportunities. This certification can be completed alongside any undergraduate degree at UNC Charlotte.
