Graduate testimonial

I studied Mathematics and Management with the specilisation Actuarial Science at Ulm University. During my studies I was able to complete almost all certificates that are required by the German Actuarial Association (DAV) to work as an actuary. This is a unique offer by Ulm University and tremendously helpful for the career start!
