    Impressive but realistic Project ideas (15 weeks)

    Sounds like a good idea, TBH I haven't studied MCMC. What about MLMC? Maybe MCMC is similar. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Multilevel_Monte_Carlo_method I would say that doing a modular approach in Python pays dividends going forward in your career. A remark: the MC architecture is the test...

    One idea: Monte Carlo option pricing in Python based on solutions in C++, C#. https://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/epdf/10.1002/wilm.10647

    Feedback/Input on career shift from applied math eng -> Quant Finance roles

    Nothing wrong with SW engineering. Performance can be a requirement for many applications. In a sense, the maths is not the most critical part(?) C++ is still vital I reckon.

    Would it be better for me to study Java or C#?

    C# is much better than Java for quant stuff (Java is good for other things). C++ and C# are close. Many shops use C# because its many advantages. C# for Financial Markets Daniel J. Duffy and Andrea Germani C# is a modern object-oriented programming language that runs under the Microsoft .NET...

    C++ course (Datasim or Baruch)

    In the QN C++ course we use Euler scheme for Black Scholes. It's easy but 1st order. Now, ADE is just as easy to program. Could be an exercise next version? Let me know. https://papers.ssrn.com/sol3/papers.cfm?abstract_id=1552926 @APalley @Paul Lopez

    C++ course (Datasim or Baruch)

    My 2022 book on PDE/FDM for finance is useful in this context And I have C++ code for all schemes. https://www.linkedin.com/pulse/upcoming-book-pde-methods-finance-planned-date-december-daniel-duffy/?trackingId=sQvR8%2Bg6RsKMnBIebUcztA%3D%3D

    C++ course (Datasim or Baruch)

    Fantastic! Actually, there are 2 modules on Monte Carlo and FDM 101 to do in C++. After that you are ready for Adv FDM and I can coach you how to set up the fancy schemes and program them in "C++" if you like idea.
