Bachelor of Science (Hons) in Financial Mathematics

The BSc in Financial Mathematics course prepares you for a career in the financial sector, reflecting the field's increasingly high level of sophistication in mathematical knowledge and computing skills. This programme will equip you with the knowledge and skills required to design, price, and hedge complex financial products (such as derivatives, options and swaps), to understand the movement of stock and bond prices, and to measure and manage financial risk.

The programme provides you with a firm foundation in mathematics, statistics, and computing for banking, finance, and insurance. It's also suitable for students who intend to pursue careers in business and research roles in industry and academia. It is an intellectually challenging programme both in depth and in breadth, which best suits students with an interest in problem solving, who are keen to apply in mathematics to real-world challenges.       

In the second semester of your third year, you'll participate in INTRA, an internship scheme placing students in relevant commercial employment. This is an opportunity for you to gain experience in financial firms and build industry connections.
