Signature Work
This course serves as, partly, a Capstone course for the Actuarial Science major and one of the tracks in the Risk Management & Insurance Certificate, but also presents some flexibility for focusing on timely and relevant topics in the field. As such, there is an expectation that some topics will change over time to reflect current issues of importance. Nevertheless, the general thematic structure of this course is to examine risk management and insurance ‘in action.’ On the risk management side of the course this will mean examining risk management program operations and will entail some case study activity. Such topics could include problems in managing work-related injury; managing risks in global firms; and alternative risk financing. On the insurance side of the course, the intention is to consider insurance industry challenges and problems. Such topics could include the effects of climate change on the insurance contract; insuring driverless vehicles; and an examination of the reinsurance sector. Prerequisites: ACSC 220 or FINC 2XX (crosslisted course equiv. to ACSC 220) and either ACSC 264 and MATH 313 or FINC 301, FINC 302, and FINC 303
