Overview

Qualifying as an actuary is a passport to a wide variety of careers in insurance companies, investments, pensions, health care and banking – not just in the UK, but throughout the world. Industrial placements may be undertaken in the UK or overseas. The University does not guarantee every student will find a placement. Those who do not secure a placement will be transferred to the MSc programme without a placement. Our International Master’s programme is fully accredited by the Institute and Faculty of Actuaries. It is equivalent to the MSc in Actuarial Science followed by the one-year MSc in Applied Actuarial Science. The International Master's in Applied Actuarial Science programme provides a fast-track route to qualifying as an actuary. Students who achieve a high enough overall mark in this programme can obtain exemptions from professional examinations. Specifically, in the first year of the programme, depending on the modules chosen, students may be eligible to gain exemptions from subjects CB1, CB2, CM1, CM2, CS1 and CS2 of the Institute and Faculty of Actuaries. In the final year of the programme, depending on the modules chosen, students are eligible to gain exemptions from subjects CP1, CP2, CP3, SP2, SP5, SP7, SP8 and SP9 of the Institute and Faculty of Actuaries.
