Actuarial Science with a Year in Industry
If I were to go back in time knowing what I know now, I would still pick Kent.
I had a good experience when I met representatives from the University of Kent in Malaysia. I knew that Kent was one of the best universities for Actuarial Science and I didn’t want to study in a big city, so Canterbury was perfect.
One of the best things about the School is how supportive the lecturers are, they really helped me settle back into studying when I returned from my year in industry.
I can’t pick just one, but I enjoyed most of my final year modules more as they were hands-on and practical.
The practicality of my modules in third year. It was really interesting using industry related software like PROPHET and applying the theories we know into real life examples.
Yes, I found the School to be supportive. I struggled a little coming back from my placement year, but I am thankful to have had the support of both the lecturers and members of staff.
I think it is a great move forward and makes the School more visible. It also provides a central hub for SMSAS students. Students are now able to have revision sessions closer to their lecturers.
Challenging and exciting.
Definitely! If I were to go back in time knowing what I know now, I would still pick Kent.
