Spend your third year in a business/commercial environment, working alongside actuaries so that you gain awareness of the application of technical concepts in the workplace. Then return to UEA to complete your final year. You will graduate not only with technical skills but with relevant work experience too, putting you one step ahead of other students. This version of our Actuarial Sciences degree is strongly recommended by our contacts in industry, who say that completing a year in industry will significantly enhance your employment prospects. Your Year in Industry also counts towards the work-based skills requirement for becoming a fully qualified member of the Institute and Faculty of Actuaries.
A Year in Industry not only gives you first-hand knowledge of the mechanics of your chosen field, it also greatly improves your chances of progressing within that sector as you secure valuable contacts and insight. What?s more, you?ll be able to put theory into practice, in a context governed by real-world time and financial constraints. |
