City University London — The Department has an extensive research program. Current interests of staff include pensions, social insurance, investment, life insurance, general insurance, health insurance and long term care, mortality and morbidity, graduation, quality control and experimental design, reliability theory, time series, stochastic processes, econometrics, generalized linear modelling and modelling of material failure.

There are two main research groupings, actuarial & statistical, with focused subgroups contained in each. In recent years, a key feature of the activity has been the bringing together of actuaries and statisticians to work together on research problems.
