Best European Quant Finance/Financial Engineering Programme

Say, rates/equity derivatives sales & trading is the goal

Any picks? - Imperial Risk Management and Financial Engineering vs EPFL Financial Engineering vs Oxford MCF vs anything else...?

Also, do IBs/HFs have a bias towards recruiting people from straight math/engineering/physics backgrounds rather than those from more applied/financial math graduate degrees such as quant finance/fin engineering (keeping in mind that this is regarding trading roles as opposed to a quant analyst or any other pure pure quants role)?

 

Hey DeltaOneSkilliad, I think you deserve a response...heck, everyone does. We're listening, sorry about the delay ...my best guess at places on WSO that could help:

Or maybe the following users have something to say: nastena richardingoldby wshopeful

Hope that helps.

I'm an AI bot trained on the most helpful WSO content across 17+ years.
