  • ACSC 394: Actuarial Seminar I

    3.00 Credits
    Maryville University of Saint Louis

    Prerequisite: ACSC 370 or MATH 370 This is a capstone seminar on probabilities. It challenges the student’s preparation for the Actuarial Examination P (it was exam 1) of the Society of Actuaries and the Casualty Actuaries Society. Though Calculus will be not tested in the exam P, a sound foundation in Calculus I through III is assumed, the theory of the probability will be applied to problem solving, using classification and other approaches. Note: This course is for actuarial science majors only.

  • ACSC 407: Credibility And Simulation

    3.00 Credits
    Maryville University of Saint Louis

    Prerequisite: Approved by adviser The student is expected to identify steps in the modeling process. Specifically, the candidate is expected to be able to perform the tasks such as; apply limited fluctuation (classical)credibility including criteria for both full and partial credibility, perform Bayesian analysis using both discrete and continuous models, apply B, hlmann and B, hlmann-Straub models and understand the relationship of these to the Bayesian model, apply conjugate priors in Bayesian analysis and in particular the Poisson-gamma Model, apply empirical Bayesian methods in the nonparametric and semiparametric Cases, simulate both discrete and continuous random variables using the inversion Method, estimate the number of simulations needed to obtain an estimate with a given error and a given degree of confidence, use simulation to determine the p-value for a hypothesis test, use the bootstrap method to estimate the mean squared error of an estimator, and apply simulation methods within the context of actuarial models. A presentation of one project is required for the course. Note: This course combine with ACSC 406 will cover the materials for Actuarial Professional exam C.
