Your suggestions please Dear Friends, Greetings ! I am absolutely new to this forum. I am planning to make a career shift to Actuarial Sc. I have an engineering (graduate and postgraduate) background. I am specifically looking for a course which would allow me to study while keeping my current job. I am not in a position to migrate to UK to do a full time MSc. Act. Sc. course. I found that the University of Leicester offers a post graduate diploma (or degree if one wants that) in Actuarial Sc. in a distance education mode. I am interested in the same. However I do not have any inputs on how good (or otherwise) the course is. Also, the course being what it is, may not offer any intership offer (for industry experience) which (as I understand) is so vital for someone like me who wants a shift in career. Do you have any idea on how the course offered by the Univ. of Leicester is? Is it really worth doing a course by distance learning for Act. Sc. I have not been able to be in touch with anybody who has actually done the course at Leicester. Any relevant tips from you in this regard would be gratefully appreciated. Warm regards, TGCHAT P.S. I have been in touch with the university and the interaction is still continuing. However, for obvious reasons, receiving suggestions from someone with an independent point of view would be so much more helpful.
