The Bachelor of Actuarial Studies (Honours) is a one-year honours degree, offering students with advanced knowledge in actuarial studies and develop research and analytical skills. This Honours year degree acts as a springboard into further study and research. Completing this optional fourth year of study will exempt students from the Actuaries Institute’s Part II professional examinations. This one-year degree program consists of four courses of advanced coursework (24 UOC) and an Honours thesis (24 UOC). The coursework component introduces students to higher level theoretical and research skills, and courses cover areas such as advanced level theory, key issues in the field, research developments in specific areas, plus research techniques and analysis. Students will then be able to apply these skills to an independent piece of research, under the direction of an academic supervisor.
