Dear participants, I welcome you all to the module of Actuarial Mathematics. The aim of this module is to provide a grounding in the mathematical techniques that are of particular relevance to actuarial work in non-life insurance, life insurance and the principles of modeling which can be used to model and value known cash-flows as well as those which are dependent on death, survival, or other uncertain risks. In addition, the module will cover three main units, namely financial mathematics; life insurance mathematics, and actuarial models.
Learning Outcomes.
At the end of this module, you will be able to:
1. Apply the appropriate mathematics to answer problems pertaining to finance, life, and non-life insurance;
2. Understand the mathematics involved in managing cash flows, life, and non-life insurance contracts;
3. Apply mathematics to explore and analyze cash flows;
4. Apply the basic techniques of actuarial mathematics and its application to insurance, pensions, banking etc.
Significant features of the module:
1. This module will be taught to the second-year students in the department of Applied Statistics of the undergraduate program.
2. It gives a grounding knowledge in actuarial mathematics, especially in financial mathematics.
3. It will be taught in a blended learning mode of delivery.
4. It will equip students with a concise knowledge of actuarial mathematics.
