The Ohio State University is honored to host the 2026 Actuarial Research Conference (ARC), one of the most prestigious international actuarial events, from July 21 to July 24, 2026. The ARC is a major North American conference that brings together scholars and practitioners in the actuarial community. Attendees will hear from keynote presenters, active researchers in special sessions, and participate in interactive networking opportunities. The ARC advances the field of actuarial science by creating a platform for actuaries to address emerging challenges and shape the future of actuarial science.

Ohio State's actuarial program was founded in 1979, and has since grown into one of the largest programs in the United States. Today, we offer training at the BS, MS, and PhD levels, and have been recognized as a Center for Actuarial Excellence (CAE) by the Society of Actuaries (SOA). OSU is proud to host the 61st ARC, and is committed to fostering collaborative research, building international connections, and helping to advance the actuarial profession.
