Description

The Actuarial Mathematics program at the University of Manitoba is one of the oldest in North America, having offered actuarial courses since 1912. Over 700 graduates have become Associates or Fellows of the Society of Actuaries (SOA) or the Casualty Actuarial Society. Currently, three undergraduate programs leading to BComm (Hons.) or BSc (Hons.), and one master’s program (MSc in Management), are offered and administrated under the Warren Centre for Actuarial Studies and Research. The Warren Centre has been recognized as a Center of Actuarial Excellence by the SOA since 2009. It was ranked as the best actuarial program in Canada in the 2010 Knight Schools survey, and was accredited by the CIA under its University Accreditation Program in 2011.
