This program prepares students for the professional exams of the Society of Actuaries and the Casualty Actuarial Society. Roosevelt students pass professional exams with a success rate that exceeds the national average. Students can earn the Societies' VEE credit in the three areas of applied statistics, economics, and corporate finance as part of their degree program. Any time a company must decide whether to pursue a course of action involving substantial financial risk, they need to consult an actuary. An actuary uses quantitative tools to analyze and plan for future financial situations, such as determining an appropriate price for a company that is about to merge with another business or designing a retirement plan for a company. In addition to insurance companies, actuaries work in government, banks, financial planning and investment companies, consulting firms, public accounting firms, large industrial corporations and labor unions.
