芝加哥大学 金融数学 (1) Background requirements There are two main criteria for evaluating applications to the program, the first is by far the most important: A solid background in Mathematics comparable to a bachelor of science degree in mathematics or another field of physical sciences is essential. You should have solid knowledge of multivariable calculus, linear algebra and differential equations. If you do not have this knowledge you might look into our Financial Mathematics Preparation Course or courses with similar contents at a local university. Computer programming ability, especially in Matlab and C++, is also useful and is essential in working afterwards. If you dont have programming experience we recommend that you take the optional course in C++ programming. Some exposure to probability and statistics is also useful. The biggest reason people are not admitted is inadequate mathematical preparation; it is not possible to figure it out as you go along. We also look at prior industrial experience. A bit of experience has the effect of making you confident that this is the career you really want. This requirement is more flexible than the need for mathematical competence. (2) Application requirements There are several application requirements. The application form itself provides more details about each of the requirements. Both the GRE General Test and the GRE Math Subject Tests are required.? However, if you received your bachelors degree prior to June of 2007, you are exempt from any GRE requirements.Please consult the GRE website for testing dates, and select dates which will provide results in time for application review.?

The exceptions are students from certain English-speaking countries such as Canada and UK. Please visit the Office of International Affairs website for cr
