How long will people live, and for how much should their lives be insured? Can you advise someone what pension product they should buy? Can we understand and predict the movement of stock prices? What is the rate of return on capital on an investment venture - and should that project be funded? These are some of the questions we will help you to answer at DCU.Actuarial Mathematics involves applying the science of chance - probability - to complicated problems encountered everyday in insurance and high finance. This degree prepares you to work in either the actuarial profession or in finance in general.The actuarial profession helps people manage their exposure to risk, and its impact on their life, property, health or future.
In finance, the explosion in innovative financial products - such as derivatives and swaps - has led to sophisticated mathematical techniques which determine their price. These products are of great importance in modern risk management
