About Financial Engineering (MSc, Executive) at the HECTOR School

Machine learning is changing nearly all aspects of our lives. Today algorithms execute tasks that until recently only human experts were able to perform. Especially in the financial industry, these developments led to a disruptive change in business models and technology (FinTech and InsurTech) and thus to dramatically transformed risk and investment processes. In order to prepare you for such tasks, our Masterâ€™s programme in Financial Engineering offers you a unique combination of finance theory, engineering methods, management tools, and mathematical and computational techniques blended with new developments from the field of artificial intelligence and big data. Our Masterâ€™s programme exposes you to these techniques in a practical way, with a focus on hands-on applications implemented in the Python programming language. Due to the pace of financial innovations, the need for highly qualified people trained in the area of financial engineering and technology is increasing. Whether you aim to contribute to a financial start-up or an innovation lab of a well-established firm or whether you see yourself progressing on a more classical track in treasury, banking, finance, insurance, venture capital, or consulting, the mix of finance, engineering, technology, and programming prepares you for the challenge.
