There are three main reasons for me to apply MSc in Financial Mathematics: 1. I am highly interested in studying financial related mathematics models, such mean-variance optimasation model, Capital Asset Pricing model, etc. These models have been developed for more than half century. It has been widely used but it still attracts many people to improve it. I have been fascinated by this theory for a long time, that is why I decide to start my further study from this program; 2. I have strong economics and finance education background, but mathematics education background is relatively insufficient for developing cutting-edge solution for some financial problems. The course modules of MSc in Financial Mathematics include Linear and non-linear programming, heuristics and multi-criteria optimisation will be very useful in doing my own research. Hence, receiving MSc education in School of Mathematics will enhance me in dealing with various financial problems; 3. I decide to apply for MSc in Financial Mathematics because of its reputation in both academia and financial industry. Many graduates from this programme have very distinctive perspectives some of them join the major investment banks in different countries around the world, others pursue further study about finances in universities with good prestige. I wish to join this excellent group and amplify its good name further.
