Program Overview
The Actuarial Science - Mathematics & Computer Science Double Major program at Eastern Mediterranean University (EMU) is a 4-year, on-campus bachelor's degree (B.Sc.) offered by the Faculty of Arts & Sciences. This integrated double major combines rigorous training in actuarial science with deep foundations in mathematics and computer science, preparing students for careers that demand quantitative analysis, risk assessment, and computational skills. Located in Famagusta, North Cyprus, EMU provides an international learning environment with a strong emphasis on analytical problem-solving and practical application.
What You'll Study
The curriculum covers core areas across three disciplines:
- Actuarial Science: Risk theory, insurance mathematics, financial mathematics, and statistical modeling for assessing future financial events.
- Mathematics: Calculus, linear algebra, probability, statistics, and differential equations as foundational tools for actuarial work.
- Computer Science: Programming, data structures, algorithms, database systems, and computational methods to implement actuarial models and analyze large datasets.
Students will develop proficiency in mathematical reasoning, statistical analysis, and software development, enabling them to solve complex real-world problems in insurance, finance, and risk management. The program does not require a thesis, focusing instead on coursework and practical projects.
Career Outlook
Graduates are equipped for roles such as:
- Actuarial Analyst
- Risk Manager
- Data Scientist
- Financial Analyst
- Insurance Underwriter
- Quantitative Developer
The double major provides a competitive edge in industries like insurance, banking, investment, consulting, and government agencies. Graduates may also pursue professional actuarial certifications or advanced degrees in actuarial science, mathematics, computer science, or related fields.
Admission Overview
Prospective international students should meet EMU's general admission requirements for bachelor's programs, including a high school diploma or equivalent. English proficiency is required (e.g., TOEFL or IELTS scores) unless the applicant's previous education was in English. Specific prerequisite courses in mathematics are recommended.
