Key topics in this course include stochastic calculus and time series, which are used for modelling the pricing of financial options or quantifying your exposure to risk. You are introduced to the structure of the financial world through modules in accountancy, financial institutions and investment management. You gain strong communication skills through presentations and small group tutorials.
Key features
The degree includes high level mathematical and statistical techniques, with financial applications ranging from accountancy to financial markets and investment management.
You will be taught by staff with expertise in financial mathematics and statistics from both the Centre for Mathematical Sciences and Plymouth Business School.
Financial statistics is lectured by someone who has worked for a hedge fund. Other important mathematical material for financial markets includes partial differential equations, time series and optimisation techniques.
Model and simulate financial products with Bloomberg Professional service and the statistical programming language, R. These skills are valued by financial employers.
An optional but strongly recommended placement between the second and final years gives you excellent career prospects. Recent placement providers include Vauxhall Motors (finance division) and reinsurance giant Swiss Re.
