As an actuary you are able to predict the future. Not really, of course. But you do use mathematics and statistics to determine the likelihood of certain events occurring in the future. An economic crisis, for example, or a fire, or a bankruptcy. During the BSc Actuarial Science you learn how to estimate risks, calculate their financial impact, and mitigate them properly. UvA is the only Dutch university offering both a Bachelor’s and a Master’s programme in Actuarial Science.

Actuaries are highly sought after on the labour market. This Bachelor is a great 1st step in your journey to becoming a fully qualified actuary. As an actuary you could work for organisations such as:

  • insurance companies
  • consultancies 
  • pension funds
  • government institutions
  • financial institutions (national or European banks)
