Currently a freshman at a target school. I want to get into trading, possibly quant, so I'm majoring in math right now.
The way my school is set up, I can't take that many classes outside of my major, so I am limited in my ability to take finance/economics classes. So I want to take advantage of our school program that lets us design our own major. I was thinking of combining math, economics, and finance courses into one interdisciplinary "Financial Mathematics" major.
Does anyone have any experience with "self-designed majors"? Do employers look down on this even if its constructed pretty well?
I am unfamiliar but this sounds pretty cool. Any way you can minor in Finance though? Not sure how a self designed major would resonate with employers, but everyone should understand Major Math Minor Finance.
I could take a minor, but it only allows 2 actual finance courses and isn’t as intensive as I would like
