Working in Life, it again depends on where you are going to work. In Canada, Axis is the market leader. In US, PTS, TAS, Moses and ALFA are the big ones. If you work outside of North America, Prophet is the dominate system.</p><p></p><p><br/>Recommended Computer Science Curriculum<br/>This article outlines a recommended computer science curriculum for college and university students interested in pursuing in actuarial science. The Computer Science Section of the Society of Actuaries has compiled this recommendation to guide college and university students in selecting courses and to help colleges and universities develop curriculum for actuarial science programs.</p><p>The Section suggests that about 10% of an actuarial science undergraduate program consist of computer science. This can be obtained in computer science classes and/or mathematics, statistics, or actuarial classes that include computer science topics in an integrated approach. About three-fourths of this should be devoted to programming languages. These would typically include, but would not necessarily be limited to APL, J, Basic, Visual Basic, C, C++, Fortran, Java, Pascal, SAS, and S-Plus. About one-fourth of this should be devoted to other software tools such as Excel, LOTUS, or other spreadsheets, and mathematics packages like Mathematica or Maple.</p><p>In addition to the topics normally covered in computer science courses, the actuarial student should be exposed to problems requiring iterative solutions, approximation of infinite series, approximate integration, approximation of functions, graduation of data/curve fitting, Monte Carlo techniques, manipulation of multi-dimensional arrays, and estimation of statistical distributions. <br/></p>
