Imperial College Business School - MSc Risk Management & Financial Engineering

The course has good curriculum and for the most part very good quality of teaching with lecturers being not only accomplished and experts in their fields but are also engaged and easily available. Teaching is definitely the highlight of the programme.
Careers service is not very good. It exists, and is easily accessible and at times organizes interesting events and sources good employers. However, there is no dedicated team for quants, which not only requires specialised knowledge but is also very competitive to get in so the advice and careers support should be stron in order to be effective. Unfortunately, it is probably more effective for regular finance students.
When it comes to career outcomes, some top candidates get very good placements, but for many struggle to find job and end up in mediocre placements

The course altogether is good. They teach Stochastic Calculus, FinStat, FinEng and other relevant basic Quant subjects. But primarily the focus of the program is mostly towards the risk management side of the normal/quant side mathematically in depth.

Alumni is not that supportive along with career service is terrible. They take all the finance streams students to all the career events, just good for networking. International students are not much appreciated in the market despite paying (2x), the fees. The quality of studies is really good, module leaders are great but again getting a job post program is tough.
