금융경제학 석사

Master of Financial Economics

금융경제학 석사학위이론 금융과 그 이론이 근거하는 경제 체계에 대한 엄격한 이해를 제공한다.[1] 학위는 대학원생이며, 대개 논문이나 연구 요소를 포함한다. 프로그램은 경영대학원경제학과가 공동으로 제공할 수 있다.

학위의 성격은 대학마다 다르다. 일반적으로 학위는 대부분 이론적이며, 졸업생을 연구직, 경제학 박사과정, 응용경제학에서의 역할을 준비시킨다.[2][3] 어떤 이들은 전문 학위로서 투자 은행과 금융 분야의 경력을 쌓기 위해 졸업생을 준비하며,[4][5] 경제 이론에 대한 가중치가 높아지긴 했지만, 재무 분야의 석사 학위와 견줄 만 하다. 어떤 경우에 프로그램은 실질적으로 정량적이며[6] 대체로 정량적 재무의 마스터와 유사하다.

밀접하게 연관된 학위로는 '금융경제학 석사'와 '금융전문 경제학 석사'[8]가 있다. 최근 이 분야의 학부 학위가 제공되고 있다.[when?][9]

구조

금융경제학 석사학위는 통상 1년 내지 1년 6개월이며, 일반적으로 논문이나 연구요소를 포함한다. 이 프로그램들은 입학 전에 학사 학위를 요구하지만 (보통) 금융이나 경제학을 전공하는 학부를 요구하지는 않는다. 대표적인 요건은 (다변수) 미적분미분 방정식, 통계확률 이론, 선형 대수학 등에 대한 노출이다. 많은 프로그램에는 이러한 주제에 대한 검토가 입학 또는 예비 과정으로 포함되어 있다.[3][12][13][14] [15]

커리큘럼은 이론, 응용, 모델링 사이에 분포하며, 위에서와 같이 대학과 프로그램에 따라 각각 다른 것을 강조한다.

Comparison with other qualifications

There is some overlap with programs in financial engineering, computational finance and mathematical finance; see Master of Quantitative Finance (MQF). These degrees aim to train practitioners and "quants" — i.e. specialists in derivatives, fixed income and risk analysis — as opposed to economists, and their curricula are therefore weighted toward stochastic calculus, numerical methods, simulation techniques and programming, and are quantitative (well) beyond the level of the Financial Economics degree. Entrance requirements are similarly more mathematical. On the other hand, coverage of financial and economic theory, and econometrics, while significant, is comparatively secondary.[20] As mentioned, some Financial Economics programs are substantially quantitative; these differ little from the MQF.

The overlap with general finance degrees, such as a Master of Science in Finance (MSF) or an M.B.A. in finance, is further limited, particularly where the Financial Economics program is theory oriented. These degrees are focused on financial management, corporate finance and investment management, and are practice oriented with limited exposure to the underlying economic theory. However, since these courses train graduates in the use of the models developed in Financial Economics, the theory is (sometimes) covered in the context of a (basic) understanding of model assumptions. Similar comments apply to professional certifications such as the Chartered Financial Analyst (CFA) designation. The Master of Finance (M.Fin.) and M.Sc. Finance, as opposed to the MSF, have a significant theory component (as well as quantitative component),[21] and largely overlap with the Masters in Financial Economics.
