Actuarial Science

Business & Actuarial Studies

Actuarial Science teaches you how to use maths and statistics to predict and price risk -- mainly for insurance, pensions, and investments. You'll learn to build models that estimate how much things like life insurance policies or pension funds should cost, based on real data about how likely certain events are.

4 YearsBSc

Entry Requirements

WASSCE/SSSCE: Credit passes (A1-C6 / A-D) in 3 core subjects (English, Mathematics, Integrated Science/Social Studies) and 3 relevant electives. Aggregate 36 or better.

Statistics

Sciences

Statistics teaches you how to collect, organize, and make sense of data to answer real questions -- from predicting disease outbreaks to understanding consumer behavior. It's less about programming than Computational Statistics and more focused on the theory and methods behind good data analysis.

3 YearsPhD

Entry Requirements

Relevant Master's degree with a strong research background.

Applied Geophysics

Sciences

Applied Geophysics uses physics-based methods -- like seismic waves, gravity, and magnetic field measurements -- to study what's happening beneath the Earth's surface without having to dig it up. You'll learn how to collect and interpret geophysical data to find mineral and energy resources, assess groundwater, or evaluate ground conditions before major construction projects. Coursework combines physics, mathematics, and geology, covering topics like seismology, electromagnetic surveying, and geophysical data processing. Expect heavy use of specialized software for interpreting data alongside fieldwork collecting it with geophysical instruments.
