Hi @Kami.. !

There are so many careers you can go into with an Actuarial Science degree 🤩

With the degree, you will be well-placed to work in the worlds of 💼Insurance 💶Pensions 🏥Healthcare 🏦Banking 🏙️Business management and 📊Risk assessment.

You will be well-equipped with mathematical and statistical knowledge and problem-solving skills to help businesses and institutions evaluate the long-term financial implications of the decisions they make. You can have a look at Yash's video, where he discusses his experience when on his placement with BUPA during his degree in Mathematics and Actuarial Sciences here at Leicester: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=03Pk9rZNsqo&t=47s

Hope that helps!
