If you are interested in a career as statistician, data analyst, or actuary, you could choose to pursue a concentration in actuarial science.
Businesses, governments, and other enterprises can largely attribute their success to striking a careful balance between risk and reward. That's where actuarial science comes in. The answers to important questions always lie within the data. Actuaries uses mathematical modeling and statistics to help organizations assess risk and make informed decisions in often volatile environments.
