This is the most theoretical of the course sequences, focusing
on the graduate level mathematics needed for the program, and
taught specifically with an eye toward finance.
For MFM students who are *not* asked to take FM 5001/5002, this
can be taken at any time. Those who are asked to take FM 5001/5002
must finish FM 5001/5002, with grades of "B" or better (in both
courses) before beginning FM 5011/5012. Any exceptions must be
approved by the Director of the MFM program.
FM 5021/5022Mathematical Theory Applied to Finance(required)4 credits per semester
This course sequence forms the bridge between theory and
application.
This sequence cannot be started before FM 5011/5012 is started,
though it can be taken at the same time as FM 5011/5012.
It also cannot be started before FM 5091/5092 is started,
though it can be taken at the same time as FM 5091/5092.
This course sequence is highly practical, taught by industry
professionals and will be taught with an eye toward hands-on
real-world problem-solving.
This sequence cannot be started before FM 5021/5022 is started,
though it can be taken at the same time as FM 5021/5022.
There is no course description for this course, because it is topical, and varies
from year to year. See the instructor websites.
