I am a ACCA and a CFA Level III candidate and planning to do masters in near future but i am confused while deciding which program should i go for. I want to pursue a career in investment banking so can anyone please suggest which courses should i opt for that would most help me achieve my goal.
I need to determine when I can take the GRE and start interrogating universities to find an advisor in algebraic topology. They’re on my list of things to do next week.
Except S2000magician no one answered my question. I asked what program should I go for not the University. I am planning for Masters in economics but just want to be sure whether this will help me achieve my goal of a career in investment banking.
Mathematics underlies economics, finance, computer science, and a host of other disciplines.
Personally, I would rather hire someone with a math degree than with a degree in any of those other fields. I believe that it easier for a mathematician to learn economics, finance, computer science, or whatever than it is for an economist, a financier, or a computer scientist to learn mathematics.
My background is in mathematics. I’ve applied it to navigation, warhead design, processing plant construction, traffic control, mortgage security analysis, risk management, portfolio analysis, and so on. It’s a very versatile discipline.
