CMU 金工申请需知..12
每年暑假,卡梅会对录取到金融工程项目的学生提供可选择的(optional) 免费预备(热身) (preparation courses)课程,主要是关于计算机语言和数学。Optional 顾名思义,也就是说,如果你觉得你的计算机和数学背景已经是很牛逼,你可以选择不去上这个热身课。
没有录取的小伙伴,如果慕名前来,要提交简历申请这个课程。严肃点,你还需要把修过的统计学和微积分课程列上 才可能有资格来上这个课,严肃点,学费带上,3000。
The mathematics course is in part a refresher course in calculus, covering some of the calculations that arise in subsequent MSCF courses, but it also covers related mathematics topics and helps students practice mathematical thinking and problem-solving skills. The course is setup as a problem-working seminar. Problems will be assigned and these and similar problems will be worked in class. The following is an example of the material you may see:
Each year, the MSCF program will offer optional mathematics and programming preparation courses. While these courses are designed for those whose skills may have become a bit rusty, the courses have proven to be beneficial to nearly all incoming MSCF students.
- To encourage attendance, these courses are open to all MSCF students matriculating this August.
- There is no additional charge for the course for entering MSCF students.
- Students will be responsible for purchasing any reference texts.
- Incoming MSCF students can register for this course via the MSCF Admitted Student Website.
COURSE MATERIALS
The mathematics course is in part a refresher course in calculus, covering some of the calculations that arise in subsequent MSCF courses, but it also covers related mathematics topics and helps students practice mathematical thinking and problem-solving skills. The course is setup as a problem-working seminar. Problems will be assigned and these and similar problems will be worked in class. The following is an example of the material you may see:
- Learn to accurately compute the limits, derivatives and integrals that arise in subsequent courses in the Master's program in Computational Finance. Problems will be chosen to emphasize the calculations that have caused students difficulties in these courses in the past.(学习精确计算极限,变量和积分,这些往期学习过程中同学们觉得困难的问题)
- Practice formulating problems mathematically and solving brain teasers similar to those commonly asked in job interviews.
- The course will not present theory except as it is needed to do the assigned problems.
The programming course is a refresher course in basic C++ syntax(基本的C++语法) and rudimentary program development(基本程序开发). The course may involve hands-on program development in the following areas:
- Create projects in MS Visual Studio
- Write functions
- Use C++ libraries
- How to think about variable types and basic algebraic manipulations.
Individuals not enrolled in the MSCF program can participate in the courses at a tuition of $3000. To qualify, submit your resume along with a list of previous calculus and probability courses taken to Jessica Bittel at jessicabittel@cmu.edu.
