Students in the MFE program learn to employ theoretical finance and computer modeling skills to make pricing, hedging, trading and portfolio management decisions. Courses and projects emphasize the practical applications of these skills. We are readying a new generation of professionals to apply theoretical finance and computer modeling skills to reduce risk and make informed pricing, hedging, and portfolio management decisions.
