Bachelor of Science (Actuarial Science)

Curriculum

Unlike a Bachelor of Business Science (BBusSc), a Bachelor of Science is not a fixed curriculum degree. Students have to construct their degree subject to certain rules which can be found in the handbook of the Faculty of Science.

Some of the most important rules for the curriculum are:

  • The curriculum shall include the equivalent of at least nine full-year courses recognised by the Science Faculty.
  • The curriculum shall include at least two full-year third-year courses recognised by the Science Faculty

For more detailed information about the degree and a list of those courses recognised by the Science Faculty please consult the Science Faculty Handbook
