Actuarial Science Program

Purdue’s Actuarial Science Program is jointly coordinated by the Department of Mathematics and the Department of Statistics, offering a comprehensive quantitative foundation in mathematics, probability, economics, data analytics, and statistics. This combination of quantitative and analytical skills is a big reason why the actuarial science program is one of the top-ranked programs in the United States. 

The Society of Actuaries (SOA) has designated Purdue University as a Center of Actuarial Excellence (CAE) – a prestigious recognition that attests to the program's ability to equip students with the skillset necessary to address the evolving challenges faced by insurance and risk management professionals. Additionally, Purdue Actuarial Science has been honored with the Silver Level recognition from the Casualty Actuarial Society (CAS) University Recognition Program, underscoring our commitment to preparing the next generation of qualified actuaries in the property and casualty segment.

Purdue Actuarial Science is approved under the University Earned Credit (UEC) program, allowing students to earn credits for specific SOA exams by achieving requisite scores in their actuarial classes. This recognition provides a streamlined path for students to advance in their professional credentials while completing their degree.
