“I wanted a course that allowed me to think globally, as well as open those global opportunities. I found that the actuarial path was well-respected and allowed people to travel around the world for work without having to necessarily worry about redoing their qualifications. Most of the modules I had focused on applications in the future, and I found this very interesting.” [Jonathan from University of Leeds]
