• The Master of Science in Mathematical Finance program is dedicated to producing technically trained professionals with an understanding of how to analyze and value complex investments, and assess the associated risks. Over the course of three semesters of study, the students receive a rigorous training in mathematics, especially in the area of probability and stochastic calculus, in statistical analysis, and in computation, together with an overview of the common financial instruments and the institutional operation of markets and exchanges.
  • The financial landscape is constantly changing, and we design the MSMF curriculum to equip students with skills and knowledge that will provide the foundation for their future success. Our program seeks the proper balance between the mathematical and statistical theory, programming practice and financial applications.
  • The finance industry is one of the largest employers of mathematically trained professionals in the world. One can find the quantitative analysts ("quants") not only in investment banks and central banks but also in associated software companies, hedge funds, broker-dealer firms, insurance companies and the finance departments of large corporations. The common language of modern financial markets is mathematics and those who work in this field have the opportunity for challenging and well-rewarded careers. Increasingly, a Master's degree is regarded as a prerequisite qualification to work in the industry.
