Here are some more

Texas
Temple Fox SBM
Florida State
Columbia

Also a lot of B-school OR/OM departments have people doing RM stuff, and some statistics PhD programs, both in B-schools and regular stats departments have an insurance/actuarial concentration that might be relevant. Some regular OR/OM/IE departments outside of B-schools also have people doing RM research. Some B-school management and strategy departments also have people doing RM stuff. For those you pretty much need to look around and see who has multiple faculty members doing RM research.

There are a few actuarial science PhDs that might be relevant too.

Thank you very much.

for those actuarial science PhDs, any of them are offered not under a math department or stats department?

Other than the ones mentioned above (Wisconsin, FSU, etc.) not to my recollection. Here is the SOA's list of PhD programs around the world that they have approved coursework for (and therefore students there are also eligible for some SOA funded fellowhips). Some are in math or stats depts, others in B-schools, and in a few cases, it is in one but there is an affiliated PhD program in the other. These are all actuarial specific PhD programs, and there are a lot of good non-actuarial RM and insurance programs out there (Columbia Business School for example) that are not on this list.

Also, look in B-school stats departments. Some have well published actuarial faculty, and are affiliated with the various other PhD programs at the B-school, and in some cases the B-school stats department offers their own PhD (like at NYU Stern).
