Student Learning Outcomes - The graduate with a Master of Science degree in Mathematics, Actuarial Science and Statistics Option will use the knowledge and skills obtained in the program to:
- Communicate actuarial/statistical ideas clearly and coherently.
- Develop analytical skills to solve complex problems in actuarial/statistical fields.
- Select appropriate software packages to solve real world problems in actuarial/statistical principles.
This program is designed to fit the needs of students in actuarial science, statistics, or related areas. To be accepted into this program, a student must have an undergraduate major in mathematics, or course work equivalent to a Central major in mathematics, actuarial science, statistics, or coursework equivalent to a UCM major in mathematics, actuarial science or statistics with a minimum grade point average of 3.00 in upper level mathematics, actuarial science, or statistics courses.
A student not meeting these minimum standards may consult the School of Computer Science and Mathematics for possible acceptance on a conditional basis.
