The Postgraduate Diploma in Quantitative Finance is designed principally for postgraduates whose work in banks and other financial institutions requires knowledge of statistical (particularly econometric) and quantitative approaches to risk and derivatives.
The programme can also provide a suitable route towards entering the MSc Finance (major: Quantitative Finance). Graduates with strong previous quantitative training (such as engineers) and graduates with lower levels of previous training can both benefit from the programme by choosing appropriate courses.
As a graduate of this programme you will be well prepared for research and other positions in banking, fund management, consultancy, central banks and international bodies.
Contents
You will choose four core courses.
- Econometric Principles & Data Analysis
- Econometric Analysis & Applications
- Financial Econometrics - (currently under development)
- Risk Management: Principles & Applications
- Derivatives
- Modelling Firms & Markets
