Actuarial science focuses on analyzing the financial consequences of unpredictable future occurrences. Professionals in this field specialize in measuring and mitigating risks, particularly within life and health insurance, retirement plans, workplace benefits, and investment sectors. They often serve as financial advisors or government specialists handling Social Security and Medicare matters.
Valparaiso University's actuarial science curriculum, offered through its mathematics and statistics department, delivers comprehensive training in mathematical principles, financial concepts, statistical methods, and economic theories. Graduates with a Valpo bachelor's degree who successfully complete the initial Society of Actuaries certification exams can immediately begin their careers in this profession.
