Career Opportunities
An education in actuarial science prepares students for a wide variety of careers. Challenging careers exist in a growing number of fields, including the insurance industry, employee benefits, consulting firms, government, banks and investment firms, and large corporations. The largest growing segment for actuaries is actuarial consulting.
The trend for companies, even large insurance corporations, is to outsource actuarial services. The demand in the actuarial consulting field has become so strong that consulting firms report that their limit is the ability to hire enough well qualified people flexible enough to work on projects for several companies. The best qualifications an actuary can have, according to individuals in the field, are technical skills combined with a strong business education, good communication skills, and marketing knowledge.
