Actuarial science is a discipline that applies mathematics, statistics, and financial theory to assess and manage risk, particularly in insurance, pensions, and finance. Actuaries use it to calculate probabilities of events like death, illness, or accidents in order to price insurance policies and ensure companies remain financially solvent. Becoming an actuary typically requires passing a rigorous series of professional exams alongside a strong quantitative background.
