w88 casino News Network (Reporter Xie Yuantao)In 2015, the w88 casino of Insurance actively promoted the in-depth development of the college’s undergraduate specialty disciplines, and its teaching strength continued to improve.
Perfect talent training system Deepen the reform of training programs
Under the unified deployment of the Academic Affairs Office, Dean Sun Jian took the lead in establishing a leading group for the revision of the undergraduate training program, held multiple student symposiums, expert and professor seminars, and adopted the latest general education course platform framework of the Academic Affairs Office to sort out and arrange the general education coursesRelatedTeachers select general courses; reflect differentiation and differentiated talent training, and set elective course modules; break the perspective of "setting courses based on teachers" and set courses based on student development; communicate, modify, and determine minor plans and double degree plans with the Academic Affairs Office; eliminate some courses, redefine and divide some cross-cutting content; add British actuarial certification courses, and open them up throughout the w88 casino; revise 30 versions before and after, and finally determine the training plan.
Condensing discipline development goals Improving the subject layout
The college entrance examination enrollment reform is gradually implemented on a pilot basis in Shanghai and Zhejiang, and enrollment based on majors (rather than directions) has become a trend. In this context, the college has condensed its disciplines and re-examined the training of professional talents.
The "Insurance Major (Risk Management and Insurance Direction)" classifies the talent training objectives. In order to obtain the most comprehensive and highest-level CERA certification in the risk management major and cultivate outstanding students who are qualified to serve as risk analysts, risk management managers and chief risk officers, it has connected with the training and coaching courses of the Actuaries Association, and has taken solid steps in the CA1 examination and the British Actuaries Association Financial and Investment Skills Certificate certification.
The application for the new major of "Actuarial Science" was unanimously approved by the w88 casino's Talent Training Committee and successfully submitted to the Ministry of Education for filing. In the six years since the actuarial and risk management direction was established in w88 casino, we have successfully enrolled nearly 350 students. We have successively reached and implemented cooperative training agreements with internationally renowned universities such as the University of Kent in the UK, the University of Manchester in the UK, and Temple University in the US. We have sent four batches of outstanding professionals with a total of 35 people to further their studies overseas, and have achieved remarkable results. The college has signed an examination-free certification agreement with the British Institute of Actuaries for eight courses including the British Actuarial Qualification Examination CT1-CT8. It has become the first higher education institution in China (except Hong Kong) to obtain this qualification, which provides a good opportunity for the future high-level development of the actuarial discipline of w88 casino.
The Labor and Social Security major takes advantage of the "Professional Comprehensive Reform Pilot" project to clarify the subject positioning, upgrade some courses, and form a distinctive major with international, advanced and forward-looking professional perspectives that relies on the aging risk management theory and takes the social security system as the core of the major.
Pay close attention to quality engineering Cultivation of innovative talents
The professional courses in the college are taught in four teaching methods: Chinese, Chinese-English bilingual, all-English and experimental courses; a total of 12 bilingual and 6 all-foreign language courses have been offered; an international certification system is used to improve the teaching quality; the core courses of actuarial science have reached the level of foreign actuarial education. Dean Sun Jian took the lead in establishing the national teaching project "Insurance College British Actuarial Examination Interview Certification Course Construction Project". The college has completed "Insurance", "Human Resources Development and Management", "Reinsurance", "Life Insurance Actuarial Science (2)", "Research on the Construction of the Department's Undergraduate Teaching Evaluation System", " 社会保障基金管理>Country Case Study" and other teaching experimental topics are constructed; the quality course "Employee Benefit Plan", the regular courses "International Insurance Law", and "Life Insurance Actuarial Science II" have been approved, and the teaching method reform "Non-Life Actuarial Science" is in progress; two papers were selected into the "2015 Innovation and Practice - Undergraduate Talent Cultivation and Education and Teaching Reform Paper Collection".
Actively participate in teaching and research activities. The types and subject scope of teaching research projects have increased, and teachers’ enthusiasm for participating in research on education and teaching methods has gradually increased.
There are 8 registrations for the campus micro-course competition: "Digital China: Labor Population", "Employee Benefits: Each Can Show Their Abilities (Part 1)", "Contract Formulation: Components and Requirements", "Overview of Social Insurance", "Mortality Rate in Actuarial Science", "Definition of Markov Chain", "Derivatives: Overwhelming", "Why Intervention: Outside the Market", among which the first three courses won the third prize in the competition.
Deepen foreign exchanges Highlight the characteristics of international education
The w88 casino has established a “2+2” actuarial major international cooperation training program with the University of Kent and the University of Manchester in the United Kingdom; it has established multi-level cooperation programs such as “4+1” and “1+1” with the University of Manchester in the United Kingdom; it has established a DBMD (3+2) undergraduate and master’s degree cooperation program with Temple University in the United States, and has successively sent 100 students to participate in the training. In terms of foreign internship bases, we are trying new cooperation with the University of Illinois and the University of Hawaii in the United States. Continue to follow up and expand new models of international joint talent training, and provide timely feedback and adjustments to training plans.
Break through the traditional education mechanism and create the "English + major" undergraduate and master's degree training model for international students; for the first time, it has achieved a full bloom of education levels and categories for international students. Chinese students and English-speaking students have developed at the same time, and undergraduates, masters and doctoral students have been trained at the same time.
Building a subject competition platform Improve the quality of talents
The proportion of graduates in 2015 who went to graduate w88 casino was 31%, and the proportion who went abroad was 37%. About 38 students took the actuarial exams in China and North America, and 21 students went abroad to study for a master's degree in actuarial science; many outstanding students went to MIT, Columbia University, Oxford University, Cambridge University, London w88 casino of Economics and Political Science, Imperial College, and Cornell University for further studies.
College students have won important awards in competitions such as the National College Student Mathematical Modeling Contest, the American Modeling Contest, the National College English Contest, the "Challenge Cup", the National College Student Insurance Moot Court Competition, the "Ping An Inspirational Plan", the Bosch Innovation Challenge, and the China-Japan-Korea Business Creativity Competition. Especially in the Munich Re Actuarial Competition, w88 casino took third place in the competition for the first time.
In the next step, the college will continue to promote and deepen the teaching reform, strengthen teaching construction, improve the teaching system, continuously improve the teaching level and teaching management, and strive to become a "first-class insurance college, first-class insurance discipline".
