Financial Mathematics

|
The Financial Math program has several seminar series. Every semester there is always a Proseminar, part of the requirements for the MS degree, and a Research Seminar, serving the research faculty and advanced students, along with beginning students who want to hear research talks by visitors and members of the department. There are also other seminars offered as need and interest dictates. Here is a list of current and recent seminars.

|
Proseminar, MAT 5939r
Participation in the Proseminar is expected in each enrolled semester prior to the MS degree. A Resume Workshop, discussions of credentialing and of professional standards and ethics, information about available tools and supplementary topics with assignments to the students distinguish the Proseminar from a research seminar. Speakers from the financial sector visit campus several times each year, including the Financial Mathematics Festivals.

Research Seminar, MAT 6939r

Talks are given by faculty, students, and visitors on their research or on research papers chosen by the participants. Some of the visitors all speak in the Friday afternoon colloquium.
