5.5.6 Actuarial Science Co-operative Education Program
Admission

Application deadlines: December 1 and May 1. Students are normally required to apply to the Career Services Office.

The Actuarial Science Co-operative Education programs are five-year degree programs which include 16 months of supervised work experience in various companies and government agencies. Students who wish to enter the Actuarial Science Co-operative Education program are urged to discuss their pre-admission course selection with the Department of Mathematics and Statistics as early in their program as possible.

Students must have successfully completed at least 8.0 FCE appropriate to their degree program, including Mathematics 321, Statistics 323 and Actuarial Science 327, before commencing the first co-operative education placement. Students must have a minimum grade point average of 2.70 in the field before commencing the Co-operative Education major program, or a minimum grade point average of 3.30 in the field before commencing the Co-operative Education honours program.

Requirements

Students must complete the following four courses in addition to the regular requirements for the BSc and the BSc Honours in Actuarial Science degree programs: Co-operative Education 501.01, 501.02, 501.03, 501.04. Co-operative Education 501.05 is not required but may be completed.

In addition to the Faculty and Departmental regulations governing Honours and Major programs and the regulations governing Co-operative Education programs, the following regulations apply. A minimum grade point average of 2.70 must be maintained for continuation in the BSc degree programs. A minimum grade point average of 3.30 must be maintained for continuation in the BSc Honours degree program. In the Co-operative Education programs students must take study and work terms consecutively and be registered full time. The Co-operative Education courses are in addition to the normal requirements for the BSc degree programs in Actuarial Science. Students must complete the same required courses and number of courses as required for a student completing the traditional degree program. Upon completion of each Co-operative Education work term, the student must present a work term report to the Co-operative Education representative in the Division of Statistics and Actuarial Science.

Program Sequence

The first four-month work term (Co-operative Education 501.01) is normally taken in the summer between Years Two and Three. The remaining four-month work terms are taken during the last three years of the program. (Note that additional faculty requirements are not included.) Other combinations of work and study terms are also possible.

It is suggested that students follow either Sequence A or Sequence B.
