College of Sciences & Mathematics

As a student in the College of Sciences & Mathematics at Belmont University, you have the opportunity to join a dynamic and supportive community of like-minded individuals. Our student organizations are designed to provide you with hands-on experiences, leadership opportunities, and the chance to connect with industry professionals. Whether you are interested in a particular field of study, or just looking to get involved and build your skills, there is a student organization for you. From science and math clubs to honor societies and research groups, these organizations offer a diverse range of opportunities to enhance your education and help you succeed in your future career.

The Belmont Actuarial Students Society provides an opportunity for members to learn more about future uses of mathematics and actuarial science by sponsoring speakers and discussion panels. It provides an opportunity for current mathematics majors in the actuarial science program to meet and interact with fellow classmates and alumni, allowing them to expand their network and to learn more about their particular field. This club will be of particular interest to students interested in mathematics, actuarial science, insurance work, or graduate school.
