4.00 Credits
(287) (Also offered as MATH (5630.) First semester. Four credits. Prerequisite: MATH 3160 or STAT 3375; and MATH 2620. MATH 3630 is not open to students who have passed MATH 5630. Provides the theoretical basis of actuarial models and the application of those models to insurance and other financial risks. The concept of "model" in anactuarial context, how and why models are used, their advantages and their limitations. Extracting important results from models for the purpose of making business decisions, and approaches to determining these results.
-
4.00 Credits
(288) (Also offered as MATH (5631.) Second semester. Four credits. Prerequisite: MATH 3630. MATH 3631 is not open to students who have passed MATH 5631. A continuation of Actuarial Mathematics I. This course, along with MATH 3630, helps students prepare for the actuarial examination on models for quantifying risk.
-
3.00 Credits
(276) Either semester. Three credits. Prerequisite: MATH 3160 or STAT 3025 or 3375; and MATH 2620. Introduction to the design of computerized simulations for analyzing and interpreting actuarial and financial problems. This course, together with MATH 5637, 5640, and 5641, helps the student prepare for the actuarial examination on the construction and evaluation of risk models.
