2 Actuarial Sciences Course Programs

Actuarial science at Franklin College is an interdisciplinary major consisting of coursework in mathematics, statistics, and business that will help students develop the quantitative skills needed to assess and manage risk, especially in a financial setting. The actuarial science program at Franklin College is a member of the Society of Actuaries’ UCAP list of Universities and Colleges with Actuarial Programs in recognition of the fact that our program helps students develop the skills and knowledge necessary to become an actuary.

Upon graduation, students receive an Actuarial Science degree as well as a Statistics degree. Most students also choose a Business Management minor. Becoming an actuary requires passing a series of professional exams set by the Society of Actuaries and the Casualty Actuarial Society. Students will be prepared for the first five exams and take the exams while still in college. Most students are recruited to careers as actuaries immediately after college working in banking, insurance, government agencies and financial services.
