Actuarial Science Course

What will I learn?
You will build a thorough command of probability distributions, statistical inference, and life contingencies as they apply to real insurance and financial problems. The course covers loss models, credibility theory, and ratemaking methods used daily by practicing actuaries. You will learn how to construct and analyze claims development triangles, apply chain-ladder and Bornhuetter-Ferguson reserving methods, and quantify reserve uncertainty. Advanced topics include economic capital modeling, predictive analytics with generalized linear models and machine learning, and financial economics for valuing embedded insurance options. Computational skills in statistical programming, SQL, and spreadsheet modeling are integrated throughout to support reproducible actuarial workflows.
