The Specialisation builds upon foundational mathematical knowledge to prepare models to analyse data in a rigorous numerical manner and gain an understanding of the financial impact of business decisions.

What you'll learn
  • have demonstrated narrower knowledge and understanding in a further field of study that is typically at a level that, whilst supported by advanced textbooks, includes some aspects that will be informed by knowledge of the forefront of Actuarial Mathematics, GC1
  • can apply their narrower knowledge and understanding in a manner that indicates a professional approach to the field, and have competencies typically demonstrated through devising and sustaining arguments (to both specialist and non-specialist audiences) and solving problems within Actuarial Mathematics, including using digital technologies, GC2, GC3
  • can gather and interpret relevant data within Actuarial Mathematics to inform judgements that include reflection on relevant social, scientific, or ethical issues, including being aware of the diversity of international perspectives associated with Actuarial Mathematics, and how these impact upon the practice of the field, GC4, GC5
  • display a high standard of professional behaviour, including effective time management, both independently and as a team member, GC6
