Ms Bs Mathematics with Actuarial Science and Predictive Analytics
Introduction
Ms Bs Mathematics with Actuarial Science and Predictive Analytics is a first term of their junior year (60 units completed) Masters program taught at Towson University, USA. The program is offered in campus-based modes with full-time options.
The Accelerated Bachelor’s to Master’s program in Mathematics with Actuarial Science and Predictive Analytics lets eligible Mathematics majors in the Actuarial Science and Risk Management (ASRM) concentration apply to complete an undergraduate mathematics degree and a graduate Master of Science in Actuarial Science and Predictive Analytics in a shorter time frame. Students follow an approved plan that includes bachelor’s requirements and graduate courses that support actuarial science and predictive analytics topics.
Students choose two or three courses, up to nine units, from a specified graduate course list. Nine units of 500–600 level courses can count toward both the undergraduate and graduate programs. A bachelor’s degree in Math-ASRM is awarded after the bachelor’s requirements are met, and the graduate degree is awarded at completion of all graduate requirements, including remaining graduate courses and passing at least two Society of Actuaries professional exams.
Admission requires current admission as an undergraduate Mathematics major with the ASRM concentration. To continue in the master’s program, students must maintain a minimum overall GPA of 3.00, earn a “B” or better in each graduate course taken as part of the accelerated program, and complete the bachelor’s portion of the program while meeting program GPA requirements.
