The Actuarial Science programmes at Leicester are accredited by the Faculty and Institute of Actuaries. We offer the only accredited distance learning course. Actuaries are problem-solvers, business analysts, consultants and risk assessors, all rolled into one. Upon completion of the course your skills could be applied to the worlds of insurance, pensions, healthcare, banking, business management and risk assessment. You will be equipped with mathematical and statistical knowledge and problem-solving skills to help businesses and institutions evaluate the long-term financial implications of the decisions they make. By concentrating on both technical expertise and transferable skills (such as communication and problem solving) the programme prepares graduates for direct entry into the profession and a successful career. Our courses offer a fast track route to qualifying as an actuary by providing exemptions from the Faculty and Institute of Actuaries CT1-8 examinations. Obtaining a good overall mark across your taught modules on these programmes can lead to exemptions from these examinations.
