The Master of Science in Mathematical Finance program equips students for careers in quantitative finance. Today, businesses across sectors—particularly financial institutions, investment banks, and commodities firms—depend on advanced mathematical models to assess, quantify, and mitigate risk. The rise of these models gave birth to Mathematical Finance, a field also known as financial engineering, computational finance, or quantitative finance, demanding expertise in both finance and mathematics. UNC Charlotte's Mathematical Finance program is a collaborative effort between the Belk College of Business's Finance and Economics Departments and the College of Liberal Arts & Sciences's Mathematics and Statistics Department. The interdisciplinary curriculum incorporates courses from all three departments, with elective options allowing students to customize their focus.
