Assisting a student studying actuarial science with zakaat money

Q: Can a student intending to study actuarial science be assisted with zakaat money?

A: This career is not right. Hence, to study it is not correct. So when studying it is incorrect then how can you support him to study something that is wrong.

And Allah Ta'ala (الله تعالى) knows best.
