The following schedule is subject to change:
20 Units in Total (1 Unit is 2 hours, ten lectures and ten practice sessions)

With the exercises, I mainly deal with past problems from actuary exams and end of chapter problems from Professor Futami’s textbook (Parts 1 and 2).  Although it is fine to look at notes and materials when solving problems, please prepare yourself to ultimately be able to answer each question without assistance.
