Financial Data, Markets, and Mayhem for Scientists and Engineers

Catalog description

A quantitative finance course that enables scientists and engineers to make quantitative financial decisions in corporate and wealth management contexts. We'll use tools from engineering, statistics, artificial intelligence (AI), data science (DS), and machine learning (ML) to model, analyze, and ultimately optimize financial systems and financial decision-making. The material from this course can be applied to traditional economic and engineering fields while simultaneously providing a core set of tools for students interested in entrepreneurship or opportunities in the financial and consulting industries. Course assignments will be completed using LaTeX.
