Actuaries have been called financial architects and social mathematicians because of their unique blend of analytical and business skills in the insurance and financial services industries. They serve as consultants in firms that specialize in employee benefits and pensions, in the government sector, and in a variety of other roles. To be recognized as a qualified actuary, a person should become a member of the Society of Actuaries or the Casualty Actuarial Society. Membership is obtained by passing a series of examinations. Completion of Robinson’s actuarial science program greatly enhances the possibility of passing those exams.

Risk management is the critical piece that enables businesses to function, leap over hurdles, and adeptly handle roadblocks. Organizations that don’t effectively predict and mitigate risks face the possibility of unrecoverable financial setbacks and, ultimately, total failure. They’re basically like skydivers without parachutes.

Risk management professionals are extremely well-paid, heavily recruited and oftentimes the coolest people in meetings and boardrooms. Robinson is the perfect place for you to pursue an undergraduate degree in risk: we prepare students from all backgrounds for successful careers in risk-related fields.

The Ph.D. program in risk management and insurance is designed to educate students in the concepts and analytical techniques required for cutting-edge research related to risk.

The program encompasses the study of the sources of risk, the effects of risk on the decisions of individuals and firms, the impact of these decisions on society, and the management of risk through financial institutions. Scholarly research at the frontier of risk management requires in-depth study of economics, finance, applied mathematics and statistics.

This training typically leads to academic careers at other major business schools and economics departments, or research positions in banks or insurance firms. In keeping with the broad, interdisciplinary nature of the department, the faculty publish risk-related research in top journals in economics, finance, applied mathematics, statistics and actuarial science.

Students typically offset the cost of the program through an assistantship that includes full tuition waivers. Contact us for information on tuition and funding your doctoral studies.
