The UW-Madison actuarial program is seeking to partner with schools to enroll interested and qualified students in our actuarial courses.  We want to help increase the number of credentialed actuaries by raising awareness of actuarial science as a viable STEM career and providing the necessary education and support to pursue the career.

​

We offer the following:

​​

1. Meet with incoming first-year students interested in math, math majors, and faculty to communicate the breadth of an actuarial career.

​​

2. Classes offered by the UW-Madison actuarial science program.

​​

a. A course list is available here.

b. We will update the list when the course offerings at UW-Madison change.

​

3. Students register as visiting special students for UW-Madison actuarial courses and will be assessed a tuition rate specified under the UNOL program.

a. Dr. Paul Johnson, PhD, ASA serves as the point of initial contact to register and enroll in courses.

b. Classes taken at UW-Madison can be designated as elective courses at the student's home institution to help satisfy their major requirements.

​

4. Students have access to resources at UW-Madison that prepare them for an actuarial career.

a. Learn how to navigate the interview process.

b. Virtually attend actuarial club events to hear employer presentations about facets of an actuarial career, and to network with potential employers and fellow students.

​
