3.00 Credits
Prerequisite: ACSC 415 This is a capstone seminar on financial mathematics. It prepares student for the Actuarial Examination FM of the Society of Actuaries and the Casualty Actuaries Society using theory of interest. A variety of problem-solving situations will be discussed. BA-35 or BA-35 II calculators on the exam FM will be used. The students must be prepared to participate actively in the problem solving processes. Note: This course is for actuarial science majors only.
