Who We Are

Bruin Actuarial Society serves as the undergraduate student organization associated with the Actuarial Program at UCLA. Led by our board of officers, comprised of undergraduate students, we host events throughout the school year to develop our members academically, socially and professionally. We also maintain the Actuarial Program's connections with insurance and actuarial consulting firms and keep our members updated on internship and career opportunities.

BAS hosts the Actuarial Program's largest events of each year, including our Annual Career Fair in the fall, Actuarial Case Competition in the winter, and Spring Banquet. Our Career Fair is one of the largest in the nation, with over twenty firms attending annually. In addition, we host firm representatives for information sessions, resume workshops and mock interviews, professionalism workshops, and technical workshops to teach programming skills.

Prospective students and firms interested in building connections with UCLA actuaries, always feel free to contact us at bruinactuaries@gmail.com.

a meeting
Looking to learn more about the essential mechanics of the Property & Casualty (P&C) insurance industry? In this workshop, we will start with a foundational overview of the sector and define the core terminology that every aspiring professional should know. From there, we’ll deconstruct the anatomy of an insurance premium to explain how companies balance loss costs, administrative expenses, and profit loads to determine what a policyholder pays. Finally, we will explore the critical role of reserving, specifically how actuaries estimate future claim liabilities to ensure a company remains solvent.
