In 1997 the Robert W. Batten Chair in Actuarial Science was established by Georgia State University to honor Professor Robert W. Batten, who had directed the Actuarial Science program for 30 years prior to his retirement that year. With commitments to date of over $1,000,000 in support from alumni and friends of the program, the Chair will enable Georgia State to attract and retain the best teaching and research faculty in the actuarial field, to attract top students, and to expand the actuarial science seminar program. Donors to the Chair believe that the program's future success can best be ensured by providing faculty the resources needed to maintain the operation of a top-flight actuarial science program. The Chair is currently held by Shaun Wang, Professor of Actuarial Science and Director of the Actuarial Science Program.
Donations to the Chair can be made by checks payable to: Educational Foundation, Inc., Actuarial Science Program Chair.
