In spring 1999 the actuarial science program was redesigned to satisfy new exam requirements of the Society of Actuaries. Students interested in this program should consult with the Department of Mathematics and Statistics early in their academic career at Bowling Green. Actuaries are trained in business, mathematics, statistics, computer science, finance and marketing, making them a valuable asset to any company.
