The Society of Actuaries recognizes the University of Wisconsin-Milwaukee as a Center of Actuarial Excellence—one of only 20 U.S. universities with this distinction—for our quality educational program.
We also have been accepted into the Society of Actuaries’ University-Earned Credit (UEC) program allowing students to earn credit for SOA exams by completing related coursework with high marks.
Manage Risks. Reap Rewards.
Actuaries work in a variety of settings including:
- Business – insurance companies, consulting firms, banks, and financial service institutions
- Government – federal and state insurance departments
- Academia – universities and research
The profession is consistently highly rated for income potential, job security, and work environment. Additionally, the employment of actuaries is projected to grow faster than the average expectation.
