Beschreibung des Programms

As an actuary, you will find ways to manage risk and its financial consequences through strong analytical skills and knowledge in economics, finance, mathematics, and statistics. The actuarial science major at Nebraska prepares you to be a key player in companies dealing with risk, including insurance companies, hospitals, banks, and more. This major is offered in the College of Business and the College of Arts and Sciences.

Two Pathways For Actuarial Science

You can major or minor in actuarial science in the College of Arts and Sciences or College of Business. Each pathway prepares you for an actuarial career and offers the same required courses in calculus, statistics, and finance. When choosing a college, think about your other interests, the general requirements of the college, and available scholarships. View the four-year plans or meet with an academic advisor to see which option is best for you.

College of Arts and Sciences

Pathway provides flexibility to pair your interests in the humanities, sciences, and social sciences with actuarial science. You’ll take 22 credit hours of actuarial science coursework and have the flexibility to take other classes to broaden your learning in more areas. Actuarial science majors in this college often also major in mathematics. Receive 1-to-1 career coaching to ensure opportunities after graduation whether you seek high-quality employment or pursue an advanced degree.

College of Business

Pathway includes 28 credit hours in actuarial science and the core business courses and requires Fundamentals of Computer Science. Students can count finance courses toward an additional finance major or minor. As a business student, you’ll receive hands-on career development through the college’s unique Professional Enhancement Program.
