MATH417 Actuarial Science and Risk Management with R

Team-based problem solving in actuarial science and risk management. Students will learn the fundamentals of the R programming language, RStudio and R Markdown, and use these tools to complete a range of projects. Projects vary, but may include bond and loan amortization, analysis of the efficient frontier and the capital asset pricing method, insurance liability and estimates of expected loss. This course culminates in a capstone project. (Prerequisites: MATH215 and MATH357).
