C++ for Baruch MFE
I found this course when first applying to Baruch's MFE Program. I had some coding experience, but not with C++, which was specifically required for admission into the program. For students who do not meet this requirement, Baruch recommends this QuantNet course, stating that its certificate would meet the C++ requirement. This, and later learning that it is relatively well known / respected course, I decided to take it.
As I was taking the course, I was pleased with most explanations on the topics, including a general idea, perhaps a tangible analogy, and then some utility and examples. I was also happy to see the lots of sample code provided to us so that we may experiment and play with already working code. I also appreciated the suggestions throughout regarding other texts / resources for more information on whatever topic in question.
In general, it was a very informative course, with easy-to-follow lectures and interesting, albeit occasionally difficult, quizzes and homework assignments.

Thank you for the great learning experience!
I found this course through QuantNet while looking for a way to improve my C++ skills for finance. As a math major planning to enter quantitative finance, I realized that C++ is still an important language in the field. I chose this course because it has a very practical and structured curriculum, with great support from the TA.

During the course, I learned a lot not only about C++ syntax, but also about how to structure real financial engineering projects. The assignments helped me build strong foundations, and the final project brought everything together. It was sometimes challenging, but very rewarding.

Thank you for the great learning experience!

Unique C++ course for quant finance
The most unique part of this course is its close alignment with the financial application. I mean there’re lots of C++ courses and books all over the world and internet for many years, and QuantNet C++ can teach the fundamental OOP and combine it with actual financial application.

Extremely helpful course to learn C++
I took this course to strengthen my C++ fundamentals and understand more about its application in the financial sector. The structured assignments and hands-on projects were extremely helpful in building both my understanding of C++ concepts and problem-solving ability. I particularly appreciated how the course focused on real-world applications relevant to quant roles.

My classmates recommended this C++ for MFE
I think this course is very good; it has given me a preliminary understanding of the C++ language. I learned about this certificate from my classmates and online, and I want to use it for my application to a Master's program in Financial Engineering. My purpose in obtaining this certificate is to improve my C++ proficiency so that I can make some contributions in both the tech and financial engineering fields
