Getting to Know: International Undergraduate Programin Actuarial Science

Since its establishment in 2018, the ITB Undergraduate Actuarial Science Program has been one of the leading programs focusing on the development of applied and globally standardized actuarial and financial science. In the era of globalization and economic integration, the demand for professionals with international expertise continues to increase, particularly in the insurance, finance, risk management, and financial technology (fintech) sectors where skilled professionals play a critical role in supporting industry growth and innovation.

The Undergraduate Actuarial Science Program at ITB holds an “Excellent” national accreditation from LAMSAMA. Its curriculum aligns with international actuarial standards, including those of the SOA and IFoA, ensuring graduates gain globally recognized competencies for today’s financial industry.

Strong International Collaborationand Partnerships

The program collaborates with international partner universities through student exchanges, study-abroad opportunities, joint thesis supervision, and international guest lectures. These initiatives broaden students’ global networks and academic exposure.

Innovative and Interactive Learning

All courses are delivered in English using interactive, research-based methods that build critical thinking, adaptability, and problem-solving skills in global contexts.

Exposure to InternationalIndustry Experience

Students gain real-world insights through international internships at financial institutions, insurance companies, and fintech industries, strengthening their understanding of actuarial practice.

Support from Internationally Experienced Faculty and Practitioners

The program is supported by 66 faculty members (28 core faculty), many of whom graduated from leading overseas universities. International guest lecturers such as Ken Seng Tan from the University of Waterloo further enrich the curriculum by providing insights into current global actuarial perspectives and emerging industry trends.

Continuous Quality Assurance System

Program quality is maintained through regular evaluations, satisfaction surveys, tracer studies, and national and international accreditation processes.

Graduate Competitiveness and Professionalism

Graduates are equipped to compete globally and pursue international actuarial certifications, supported by strong analytical skills, cross-cultural communication, and professional integrity.
