Just wondering if there are many financial engineering programs in India. Many students want to get refresher courses/basic mathematical finance courses/etc. These might be some cheaper alternatives to taking online courses from columbia/berkeley and then applying to USA.
1) Here is a 3 semester program @ IFMR-Chennai:
Centre for Advanced Financial Studies
They have many programs actually. That is one of them. They teach stochastic calculus/econometrics/etc.
2) Here is an Exec Program between UCLA and ISB
Centre for Advanced Financial Studies
3) Indian Institute of Capital Markets provides these two
A.PG Diploma in securities market: 1 year full time., qualification:- any PG holders or degree with two year relevant experiences can apply. Admission is on the basis of written test and interview.exam.:: Welcome to Indian Institute of Capital Markets ::
COST: Rs 1,80,000/-
B.Certificate In Financial Engineering:- It is a part time certificate course., duration:-4months, qualification:- knowledge in financial theory,maths,economics,computer. :: Welcome to Indian Institute of Capital Markets :: Rs. 70,000
4) This is a certificate program by NISM (posted by Andy on this forum)
Certificate in Financial Engineering and Risk Management (CFERM)
5) I heard Jadavpur University Faculty of Engineering started a Fin Eng program too with a UK university. But I could not find anything.
6) India Institute of Quantitative Finance - They offer a few certificates and so on. http://www.iqfindia.com/
Here are some online programs that some american universities I came accross were offering. They offer certificates in mathematics, single online courses, etc, at a VERY cheap rate. $525 per credit for some engineering courses. For students who want to get the pre-reqs for fin eng, could look into this. The columbia and berkeley courses were expensive for many of the Indian and Chinese students so maybe this will help.
1)Online, Distance, and Continuing Education at Colorado State University They have certificates in statistics and offer programming courses.
$520 / credit for Stats courses.
2) http://www.online.uillinois.edu/catalog/CourseSearch.asp They have lots of certificates and courses in mathematics and programing also. It's University of Illinois so it's legit.
$695 per credit hour average,
3) http://www.outreach.uidaho.edu/eo/ViewPage.aspx?pid=95 A Statistics certificate
4) Distance Masters of Science in Mathematics Texas A&M
Mathematics & Statistics Degrees Online | Science Here is a list. Just make sure you don't pick the "Teaching Math" ones.
I would assume doing the math courses on these universities online program should be legitimate for admission purposes and pre-reqs? They are known universities. Some of the online courses you might have to be located in North America or USA, not sure about it though. Let me know if any say that.
I'll add some more stuff as I see them.
It's a bit un-organised. Sorry. I might make a better list maybe as a blog post if there is enough need for it. Feel free to post links and programs that you guys know off too.
