Women on Mathematical Paths: Actuarial Science
If you’re looking for a great career that applies mathematics and statistics to real world business problems, consider becoming an Actuary! We encourage all AWM members to share this information with women in your network.
Actuaries play a key role in helping individuals and organizations maintain financial stability by quantifying risk and uncertainty. Today’s risks are more complex than ever before, with rapid shifts in technology, climate, and demographics. Actuarial skills are essential to help the world adapt to these changes. Consistently ranked as one of the top jobs in America, the actuarial profession is projected to grow 23% over the next decade and offers job security and high salaries. You can find actuaries in insurance companies, consulting firms, banks, and government.
