我们使用数学和统计学来解决实际问题。我们的学者与行业合作
Our Statistics with Financial Mathematics MSc trains you to apply the probabilistic, statistical and mathematical techniques that are used in the finance industry.In addition to a variety of statistical techniques, we’ll cover key financial topics such as the Capital Asset Pricing Model, the Black-Scholes option pricing formula and stochastic processes.You’ll develop a detailed working knowledge of important statistical techniques and concepts, including linear and generalised linear modelling, Bayesian statistics, time series and machine learning. You’ll learn how to analyse and draw meaningful conclusions from data, and develop your programming skills using the statistical computing software R.Around one-third of the course is devoted to your dissertation. This may focus on investigating a data set, or a more theoretical or methodological topic. You’ll gain skills to help you stand out in the graduate job market, such as planning and researching a project, data acquisition, problem specification, analysis and reporting your findings.External clients, such as pharmaceutical companies or sports modelling organisations, often provide dissertation topics. Distance learning students often come with projects designed by their employer. Recent examples of dissertation topics include:Financial modelling with Lévy processesContagion in Financial Networks
