A combination of mathematics, statistics and computing, financial mathematics is a specialism vital to the day-to-day functioning of the world's economic institutions. Highly technical and theoretical aspects of mathematics take on a practical importance which can affect millions of lives through this fascinating discipline, which involves predicting the behaviour of markets and suggesting strategies for investment.
Middlesex University believes strongly that the work students do must be relevant to the world of work – that's why this course has a strong practical slant. It also has the unusual and significant advantage of including from-scratch training in computer programming, allowing students to develop first-class computing skills alongside their mathematical expertise. Students will need a good degree in maths, or a related subject like physics or engineering, but no prior knowledge of finance.
