Hi,
I am confused between these 2 programs:
1. Computational Finance MSc
2. Computational Statistics and Machine Learning MSc

I would ideally like to work in quant finance, and my background is a bachelors in electrical engineering with a 2:1 honors degree. Which one would be a better program to apply to? I do like mathematics, statistics and am good with programming, with some experience in machine learning. My motivation to go with the former is because of the balanced program including statistics, programming, mathematics, and the necessary finance information. The latter would give me a deeper understanding in statistics and machine learning. WHat would be the recommendation?
