ACSC 594 - Actuarial Seminar I


Credits: Three (3)
Prerequisite: ACSC-371 or MATH-371 or concurrent with ACSC-371/MATH-371; and Permission of Program Director
This is a capstone seminar on probabilities. It challenges the student’s preparation for the Actuarial Examination P (formerly exam 1) of the Society of Actuaries and the Casualty Actuaries Society. Though Calculus will not be tested in exam P, a sound foundation in Calculus I through III is assumed. The theory of probability will be applied to problem solving, using classification and other approaches. A presentation of one project is required for the course.
Note: This course is for actuarial science majors and graduate students only.
