Financial Mathematics Electives
The following courses are approved Financial Mathematics electives in the program. Students will be advised that enrollment in some of the courses outside of the Applied Mathematics and Statistics department will require permission from the department offering the course. We anticipate the creation of additional Financial Mathematics courses as additional staff are brought on board.
