The best way to find out what an actuary’s job is like is to try it! Every year many actuarial students obtain internships from local companies with the help of Career Development in Room 350 Murray-Herrick Campus Center (651-962-6761) or the Department of Mathematics. Internships allow you to work full-time or part-time during the summer and/or the school year. In addition, the department sponsors a regular sequence of talks on campus by men and women from the actuarial profession. The Math and Actuarial Science Club provides another source for contacts and information about actuarial professions. You may also start to take professional examinations offered by the Society of Actuaries and the Casualty Actuarial Society during your college years.
