Bachelor of Science in Actuarial Science

Manage risk with an actuarial science degree.

You may get a thrill from taking risks, but most businesses don’t. With the Bachelor of Science in Actuarial Science degree from Trine University, you can make a career out of helping determine how much risk is acceptable.

Actuaries analyze future events to help businesses and government institutions manage risk and uncertainty. In these uncertain times, there is more demand for actuaries than ever.

The experience: Foundations in math, probability, and finance

Courses in the Bachelor of Science in Actuarial Science program include the broad range of mathematics, statistics, and finance needed for success in the actuarial profession.

Students will learn to solve problems in a non-deterministic setting using appropriate statistical and probabilistic methods and to solve problems in a deterministic setting in finance and investments. They also will apply probabilistic and statistical tools and methods to areas such as finance, investments, insurance, and risk analysis.

It’s easy to talk about excellence . But it’s another thing altogether to truly commit yourself to it each and every day. To live it. To inspire it in everything around you. At Trine University, this commitment to excellence has formed the bedrock of our experience for well over a century. You’ll see it, and you’ll feel it, the second you step on our beautiful, 450-acre campus in Angola, Indiana. Few schools can say they’ve been getting it done at such a high level for nearly 130 years. We can.

A Commitment to Excellence

From our programs to our faculty, to our facilities, to the positive impact our work has on communities everywhere, we set our standards at Trine just a little higher. We can’t help it. It’s who we are. It’s why U.S. News & World Report and the Princeton Review consistently rank us among the Midwest’s best universities, and it’s why more than 1,900 companies around the world seek out our graduates.

An Innovative Spirit

Innovation is in our DNA at Trine. It always has been. In fact, the modern-day golf ball was patented by a Trine graduate. Our students enjoy an active and engaging learning experience, winning national awards for the hands-on work they accomplish. We’ve invested more than $8 million in the Division of Innovation and Technology. And we recently unveiled a new, high-tech Project Based Learning Center for Excellence.
