MATH UN2015 features linear algebra with a focus on probability and statistics. The course covers the standard linear algebra topics: systems of linear equations, matrices, determinants, vector spaces, bases, dimension, eigenvalues and eigenvectors. It also teaches applications of linear algebra to probability, statistics and dynamical systems giving a background sufficient for higher level courses in probability and statistics. The topics covered in the probability theory part include conditional probability, discrete and continuous random variables, probability distributions and the limit theorems, as well as Markov chains, curve fitting, regression, and pattern analysis. The course contains applications to life sciences, chemistry, and environmental life sciences. No a prior i background in the life sciences is assumed.

This course is best suited for students who wish to focus on applications and practical approach to problem solving, rather than abstract mathematics and mathematical proofs. It is recommended to students majoring in engineering, technology, life sciences, social sciences, and economics. Students majoring in mathematics should take MATH UN2010 - Linear Algebra, which focuses on linear algebra concepts, and provides an introduction to writing mathematical proofs.

Prerequisites: MATH UN1102 and MATH UN1201 or the equivalent. Special differential equations of order one. Linear differential equations with constant and variable coefficients. Systems of such equations. Transform and series solution techniques. Emphasis on applications.

Interested students should contact a faculty member to determine an appropriate topic, and receive written approval from the faculty advisor and the Director of Undergraduate Studies (faculty sponsorship is limited to full-time instructors on the staff list). Research is conducted primarily during the fall term; the final paper is submitted to the Director of Undergraduate Studies during the subsequent spring term.

MATH UN3994 SENIOR THESIS IN MATHEMATICS I must be taken in the fall term, during which period the student conducts primary research on the agreed topic. An optional continuation course MATH UN3995 SENIOR THESIS IN MATHEMATICS II is available during the spring. The second term of this sequence may not be taken without the first.

Prerequisites: Math GR5010 Required: Math GR5010 Intro to the Math of Finance (or equivalent),Recommended: Stat GR5264 Stochastic Processes – Applications I (or equivalent) The objective of this course is to introduce students, from a practitioner's perspective with formal derivations, to the advanced modeling, pricing and risk management techniques that are used on derivatives desks in the industry, which goes beyond the classical option pricing courses focusing solely on the theory. The course is divided into four parts: Differential discounting, advanced volatility modeling, managing a derivatives book, and contagion and systemic risk in financial networks.

The application of Machine Learning (ML) algorithms in the Financial industry is now commonplace, but still nascent in its potential.  This course provides an overview of ML applications for finance use cases including trading, investment management, and consumer banking. 

Students will learn how to work with financial data and how to apply ML algorithms using the data.  In addition to providing an overview of the most commonly used ML models, we will detail the regression, KNN, NLP, and time series deep learning ML models using desktop and cloud technologies. 

The course is taught in Python using Numpy, Pandas, scikit-learn and other libraries.  Basic programming knowledge in any language is required.

Prerequisites: all 6 MAFN core courses, at least 6 credits of approved electives, and the instructors permission. See the MAFN website for details. This course provides an opportunity for MAFN students to engage in off-campus internships for academic credit that counts towards the degree. Graded by letter grade. Students need to secure an internship and get it approved by the instructor.

This course helps the students understand the job search process and develop the professional skills necessary for career advancement. The students will not only learn the best practices in all aspects of job-seeking but will also have a chance to practice their skills. Each class will be divided into two parts: a lecture and a workshop.

In addition, the students will get support from Teaching Assistants who will be available to guide and prepare the students for technical interviews.
