In our postgraduate programme in Mathematical Trading and Finance, you’ll explore how financial innovation and globalisation have created new investment opportunities. Develop the quantitative skills and mathematical techniques used in financial markets, and learn how to develop algorithms for optimal investment decisions across various asset classes.
Core modules in quantitative trading and structuring differentiate this course from other quantitative finance courses. You’ll also focus on the theory of finance and different financial assets, exploring how these assets are priced and used for asset management or risk management purposes. You’ll build the mathematical and statistical skills needed in quantitative finance, including some stochastics. You’ll learn Python, and can choose to learn other programming languages, such as Matlab and VBA, as electives.
