The w88 casino’ application for a new actuarial science undergraduate major was approved. This marks the establishment of the first domestic actuarial science undergraduate major. The w88 casino has officially trained the first batch of domestic actuarial science undergraduate majors since 2016.
With the British astronomer and mathematician Halley Edmond compiling the world's first life table in 1693 as a symbol, actuarial science has gone through a history of more than 300 years, and the germination of its ideas can even be traced back to the ancient Egypt and ancient Rome. In recent years, actuarial science has experienced rapid development and transformation, and its application fields have also expanded from traditional insurance to investment, social security, enterprise risk management, etc. This has made actuarial science begin to assume an increasingly important role in the fields of finance, economics and even sociology, and play an increasingly important role in the development of theory and practice in various disciplines. The International Association of Actuaries, the North American Society of Actuaries, and the British Association of Actuaries have made outstanding contributions to the cultivation of international actuarial talents. The China Association of Actuaries was also established on November 30, 2007, and has quickly become the backbone of the international actuarial industry and academia, and also provides a support platform for the cultivation of actuarial talents. After the 26th International Congress of Actuaries promulgated the "International Actuarial Education Guidelines" in 1998, actuarial organizations in various countries have basically reached an agreement on basic education, and have adopted a combination of examinations and university education to determine the special training method for actuarial talents.
Before 2016, all domestic actuarial disciplines were trained through the establishment of actuarial science directions, rather than majors. Starting in 2009, the w88 casino began to recruit undergraduate students for the "Insurance Major (Actuarial and Risk Management Direction)", and in 2012, the "Insurance Major (Actuarial and Risk Management Direction) (Experimental Class)" was recruited. Over the past six years, it has successfully enrolled nearly 400 students, and its admission scores have ranked among the best in the w88 casino over the years. Since 2009, it has successively reached and implemented cooperative training agreements with internationally renowned universities such as the University of Kent in the United Kingdom, the University of Manchester in the United Kingdom, Temple University in the United States, and Michigan State University in the United States. It has sent five batches of outstanding professionals, totaling 50 people, to continue their studies overseas, and has achieved remarkable results. On May 8, 2014, the w88 casino and the British Institute of Actuaries signed an exemption certification agreement for eight courses including the British Actuary Qualification Examination CT1-CT8, becoming the first higher education institution in China (except Hong Kong) to obtain this qualification. Just as actuarial science is booming, the academy is suddenly facing unprecedented challenges.
In the autumn of 2014, the Ministry of Education conveyed new trends in the national college entrance examination reform and will promote major enrollment reforms nationwide. In the not-too-distant future, only “insurance major” (with brackets removed) will appear in domestic admissions catalogs, but there is still a big difference between insurance major and actuarial science. Actuarial science only recruits science majors, while the insurance major allows some liberal arts students to be admitted. This will undoubtedly have an impact on the specialty actuarial discipline. The w88 casino of Insurance of the w88 casino decided to apply for the first actuarial science major in China and organized relevant experts to discuss and demonstrate.
On June 18, 2015, the w88 casino of Insurance submitted the "Application for the Establishment of Actuarial Science Undergraduate Major in General Universities" to the Academic Affairs Office of the w88 casino. On July 2, the w88 casino organized a talent training committee. More than 40 members attended the meeting.
