Information

Aims, contents and method of the course

Introduction to Life Insurance Mathematics. Further stochastic models in general Insurance Mathematics. In four sessions of exercises (dates see ufind Tue/Thu) we will discuss exercises in two smaller groups. The groups will be fixed at the beginning of the semester.

Assessment and permitted materials

There are 3 ways to achieve points:
1) Written homework (Upload in Moodle) to collect points, all materials permitted.
2) Presentation of exercises at the blackboard to collect points: free talk, preparation notes permitted
3) Written exam on Tuesday 1.7., 11:30 - 13:00 HS14, all materials permitted, notebook/laptop not permitted.

Minimum requirements and assessment criteria

The 3 ways give the following points:
1) 100% of homework are worth 40 points (i.e. for each 2.5% you get 1 point)
2) With voluntary blackboard presentation you can achieve additional points (about 1 or 2 for each exercise)
3) Final test: 40 points can be achieved

Grades:
>=45 points: genügend (4)
>=54 points: befriedigend (3)
>= 62 points: gut (2)
>= 70 points: sehr gut (1)

Examination topics

Everything that is treated in lecture and exercises.
