The Actuarial Science Program at UT holds a case competition every semester for students to apply what they have learned in their classes and practice their presentation skills. In the past, the program has partnered with companies such as Willis Towers Watson and Cigna to develop the cases and judge competitors. Our Case Competition Student Committee helps ensure the cases are reasonably difficult and that the competition runs smoothly.

"I wish opportunities like this had been available when I was a student. The case study was a very realistic simulation of a typical industry challenge. As a result, these students will be more prepared for a career in actuarial science."

It was also great practice for presentation skills and communicating one's thought process through a complicated problem..."
