INS 199 - Honors Summer Seminar for High School Students

2 credits

Description
A purpose of this course is to acquaint the high school student with the risk management discipline, insurance and its use in treating loss exposures, and the structure of insurance contracts (property, liability, life, and health). Another purpose of this course is to examine public policy issues relating to risk management and insurance (e.g., should insurers be allowed to discriminate between males and females for risk classification purposes, what legislative health insurance reform measures should be enacted, how can the price/availability problem with respect to homeowners insurance in inner-city neighborhoods and coastal communities be solved). Still another purpose of this course is to expose the student to professional career opportunities in the insurance field.
