Abstract

Drake University offered a 5‐day program focusing on the recruitment of women and minorities into actuarial science studies. A few universities offer actuarial science summer camps targeting high school students. Participants in this camp, however, came exclusively from community colleges. In this article, we provide an overview of the camp's activities, structure, and outcomes. We present a longitudinal analysis of student feedback, reflecting results from one survey administered before the camp began and another distributed very near the camp's end. Our results indicate the camp succeeded on many counts.
妇女和少数族裔精算科学暑期课程
德雷克大学提供了一个为期5天的项目,重点是招募妇女和少数民族进入精算科学研究。一些大学提供针对高中生的精算学夏令营。然而,这个夏令营的参与者完全来自社区大学。在这篇文章中,我们概述了营地的活动、结构和成果。我们对学生反馈进行了纵向分析,反映了夏令营开始前进行的一项调查和夏令营即将结束时进行的另一项调查的结果。我们的结果表明,营地在许多方面都取得了成功。
