Описание программы обучения "Mathematical Finance and Actuarial Science"

The Mathematical Finance and Actuarial Science master's program is tailored to students who are interested in a demanding vocational education and training where finance and actuarial science are concerned. In addition to the foundational subject of stochastic analysis, the specialties of mathematical finance and actuarial science are therefore of central importance. Students select one of the two specialties but always acquire knowledge of the other as well. The content is complemented by courses in economics and cross-disciplinary topics.

Карьерные перспективы по завершению программы обучения "Mathematical Finance and Actuarial Science"

As a graduate of the Mathematical Finance and Actuarial Science master's program you are ideally prepared for an occupation in financial markets or insurance. Professional opportunities arise inter alia in areas where mathematical finance expertise is in demand, such as risk management or portfolio theory, as well as in actuarial science. Further options include working as an auditor, tax advisor or financial controller.

Ожидаемые результаты программы обучения "Mathematical Finance and Actuarial Science"

As a graduate you are able to mathematically model scientific questions relating to finance and insurance sectors, to analyze, critique and further develop these questions in an economic context and, ultimately, to apply the results in practice.

Given the various lectures in econometrics on offer, you will have rounded out your finance and actuarial science profile accordingly. You will also have refined your soft skills by attending courses on topics such as rhetoric or presentation techniques.

Учебный план программы обучения "Mathematical Finance and Actuarial Science"

The chosen specialty constitutes the core of the master's program – mathematical finance or actuarial science. This is complemented by courses from the remaining specialty as well as content relating to economics and econometrics. In addition, relevant cross-disciplinary courses serve the purposes of cultivating and acquiring soft skills.

The program's flexible structure makes it easier to study abroad for one or two semesters at a TUM partner university.

The degree concludes with the master’s thesis in the forth semester.

    What is the essence of a mathematics department? If you ask this question, a quick answer would be: "…solving deep theoretical questions". In our case I would add a few more core aspects, such as isolating the problems, bridging to the real world, connecting with others and communication.

    Требования к поступающим на программу обучения "Mathematical Finance and Actuarial Science"

    Required language skills for admission:

    You need sufficient German or English language skills if you wish to apply for this program. Evidence of your language proficiency has to be submitted before the end of the application deadline. Learn more about recognized certificates and other ways to prove your language skills.

    This evidence of your language proficiency confirms that you comply with the minimum language requirements for admission to the program. Depending on the program and your individual background, it may be necessary for you to keep working on your language skills during your studies. Be sure to take a look at the services of our Language Center.

    Language of instruction:

    The language of instruction for this program is German or English. Depending on the focus area you choose, you can study in German, English or both languages. To learn more about the language of instruction for each module, contact the departmental student academic advisor of this program.

    The prerequisite for the TUM-Master´s program "Mathematical Finance and Actuarial Science" is an accredited university degree in Mathematics, Physics, or comparable course of study. If you are interested in the Master´s program you should refer to the "Basics of the Bachelor´s degree course in Mathematics at the TU Munich" (see check list) to verify the required competencies in detail. You need to have acquired at least 18 ECTS credits from among the lectures listed in Table A3.1. Those in Table A3.2 are both mandatory. If these conditions have been missed by only a narrow margin, you'll have points deducted during the application process and maybe you'll be obliged to complete some of these modules during your first year of the Master´s program. If the commission thinks that there is too much missing content, your application will be rejected.

    If you would like to assess the mathematical level of our courses, please visit the homepage of Prof. Durrett and have a look at his book “Probability: Theory and Examples (4th edition, Cambridge U. Press, 2010)”. This book is one of the main references of our course Probability Theory. The fundamentals and in-depth knowledge of statistics and probability theory are tested in the interview for the Master´s program in Finance and Actuarial Science. These are based on Hans-Otto Georgii: "Stochastics: Introduction to Probability and Statistics (De Gruyter)", Chapters 1-5 and 7-12.
