A solid understanding of risks will go a long way towards providing you extra edge in your career no matter where you are. the AcS major offers just that.  \nLin Fangcheng  \nBSc (Econ), Class of 2013  \nHealth & Benefit Actuarial Analyst, AON  \nif you are looking for a challenging and rewarding career ahead, SMu Actuarial Science major opens the door to this highly specialized [industry. it](industry. it) is tailored according to the Society of Actuaries (SOA)’s curriculum, giving students a good foundation before graduation. the professors are also extremely dedicated, giving their full support and help during the preparation for the professional exams. i strongly encourage you to consider actuarial science asa second major and join our big family!  \nYap Hui San, ASA  \nBSc (Econ), second major in Actuarial Science, Class of 2014  \nActuarial Senior Executive, NTUC Income Insurance Co-operative Limited  \nif you enjoy solving complex problems, building models and doing in-depth analysis, then actuarial science could be the right choice for you.
