Hi:
I am looking to do a graduate degree a couple of years down the road, preferably before 30. My primary interest is to work in a HF as a portfolio manager.
Technical tasks and modelling are a my strong suit and frankly, I am not really the "business" type although I love the technical aspect of finance and the market. I don't really want to be in a management role, and would hate to be in PE or any field where analytical and problem solving takes the back seat to "people skills" and ability to "make deals".
What choices does one have other than MBA? what's
the difference between financial engineering and master of finance?
any other finance related graduate degree to add?
what sort of career does each of these graduate degree lead to
I would recommend the CFA. It is highly in-line with your interests and does not require much additional cost.
Yep, study for level 2 exam this June.
MFE = quantitative MSF = grad degree in more vanilla finance (sans the "mgmt" skills and other ancillary coursework you find in MBA programs)
Anything other than MFE, MSF and MBA? Is that the only three choices available for graduate school?
I am quantitative oriented, but MFE looks too technical, even for me. just to confirm, MFE are the ones that does computer programming and gets statistical? I am assuming fundamentals are not a major area of focus for MFE?
What sort of career are mostly for MSF? any examples?
Princeton and MIT have very quantitative MSF programs. Consider looking at them
