Aim: The core aim of this course is to introduce students to the Actuarial practices in jobs that they find themselves in. This in turn will bridge the gap between theory and practice. The course is offered in both semesters to students to seek practical applications of actuarial principles in insurance companies, financial institutions, pension consulting firms, and other related fields.
