The vast complexity of financial markets compels industry to look for experts who not only understand how they work, but also posses the mathematical knowledge to uncover their patterns and the computer skills to exploit them. To achieve success, banking and securities industries must come to grips with securities valuation, risk management, portfolio structuring, and regulation-knowledge embracing applied mathematics, computational techniques, statistical analysis, and economic theory. This four-course, online, instructor-led, graduate certificate provides you with what you need to know in stochastic modeling, optimization, and simulation techniques. You become expert at making pricing, hedging, trading, and portfolio-management decisions. With sharply honed practical skills, you will emerge as a key player in today's top industries-investment banking, risk management, securities trading and portfolio management.
To enroll, you must have a minimum background in mathematics. Students must also some basic knowledge in FE. Students without this background should enroll in FE510. (Note that FE510 cannot be used as a course for the FE degree.)
