Summary

The Advanced Master in Quantitative Finance offers a unique set of quantitative tools in finance.

The program covers quantitative asset management, derivative pricing and risk management and is particularly well-suited for students with a quantitative background, obtained either from recent education or through professional experience. The main objective is to train a new generation of financial professionals. You will gain cutting-edge knowledge in quantitative finance and learn to apply it to real-life problems. You will not only be exposed to some of the latest and most-used techniques and models, but also understand their advantages and limitations.

By the end of this Advanced Master, you will be able to:

Build asset management strategies and construct robust asset portfolios both within asset classes as well as across different asset classes. Create, program and back-test structured derivative products. Gain a better overall understanding of the derivatives markets compared to other graduate students and many junior professionals. Efficiently extract data from massive databases and understand the valuation aspects of counterparty risk in derivatives trading (arguably two of the hottest areas in today’s quantitative finance). Understand the context of the financial markets where these products exist and analysis are framed. Be more effective and creative in their professional environment and therefore progress more quickly in their careers.
