I am major in Computer Science and have working experience in IBM. I think the background will help if I apply for a MFE. If I want to get a job in IB, typically say buy-side trading, is it more valued than a finance master degree from B-school? (MFE is not from B-school in some colleges)





buy side trading is not IB.
buy side trading is not IB. trading in general is not IB. If you want to be a trader then MFE will help you get a quant trading position.
MFE
with your computer science background, a masters in Financial Engineering (which is what I plan to pursue after undergrad) would probably get you a position thats programming intensive. I don't know much about getting into IB with a MFE though. But it would get you close.
IB services
hi,all, thank you for your reply. Just one more question to Closer, what is IB service in general? like Merger&Acquisition,IPO, or other services on the Corporation side? any postions on the financial market side?
nvm, just realized the thread
