To be successful in today’s globalised business environment, the financial services

industry needs well-trained financial engineers with a high level of sophistication in

managing assets and risks. Investment banks, commercial banks, insurance companies,

investment management and venture capital firms, and others are seeking professionals

who can bridge financial theory and practice by applying cutting-edge quantitative

methods to decision making in the areas of risk management, asset management,

derivatives valuation, security design and structuring, hedging and replication, quantitative

trading, corporate treasury functions, and portfolio management.

The Financial Engineering, programme jointly offered by ISB and UCLA Anderson,

provides the answer to this quest.

Welcome to a unique programme in Financial Engineering. The programme is specially designed

to provide finance professionals with a sophisticated knowledge of state-of-the art financial

economics and financial practice. Quantitative finance is a well-developed discipline that is gaining
ground in importance as global financial markets grow and become integrated. The programme

will significantly enhance the skills of professionals in commercial and investment banking, asset

management, corporate finance managers, and Information Technology consultants focused on

the financial services industry..

The programme, spread over six months, offers a rigorous and quantitatively grounded curriculum.

Renowned and award-winning finance faculty will teach in the programme to provide a deeper and

more analytical study than in a typical MBA programmes. Importantly, participants will be able to

apply learned tools and techniques immediately. A collegial and cooperative learning environment,

hands-on practical training, and access to the global UCLA Anderson and ISB alumni networks

make this innovative programme truly unique.
