MAFN@Columbia 和 MSFM@Chicago，大家选哪个？

蒙太奇

Students with CSEE background get more benefit from UC because there are so many quant fund or prop trading firms in Chicago, which give extremely good compensation (require hard core programming/math skills at same time). Also The competition is significantly less in Chicago as well. But if you want to do quant in IB, Columbia is probably a better choice. Not sure about MAFN's placement. Know a guy working in my team as IT is from that program though (still good pay, 100K base + 50K sign-in bonus)

Other two programs are not comparable at all. Not sure how other guys get UC=UIUC but that is just bs, not even mention Fordham. Finance may be the industry that discriminate school brand most.

To Morningside，我是对此评论的。。。

前台IT的话，50%bonus还是可能的吧

我没问过到底有没有。。但我估计没有。。虽然他们挺辛苦的。。。

投行前台 = IBD ST PWM Research PE(fund)
投行里IT永远是BO

敢问MORNING SIDE是哥大毕业的吗？因为我住过那。。知道COLUMBIA就在MORNING SIDE。。

vote for chicago, 哥大有MFE，MSOR，MAFN这些项目出来都能做金融工程，有人说哥大统计水（对于我来说不水，因人而异），MAFN就是统计开的。location不相上下，在金融界两校的名声我不了解，在经济界chicago不是Columbia可以望其项背的

更正一下，MAFN不是统计开的

说白了，这两学校差不多。。。按LZ喜好吧

CorCorC

不过芝大课程貌似更合理一点，数学金融计算机都有，哥大几乎纯数学，即使有3门选修

羡慕，崇拜呀~~沾沾喜气~~

不好意思，主页上是说department of mathematics下。
但是你看他家的课程：
The seven required courses are MATH W4071 (Mathematics of Finance),             STAT G6503 (Time-Series Modeling), STAT W6501 (Stochastic Processes),           STAT W4315 (Linear Regression Models),                                          MATH G6071 (Numerical Methods in Finance),                                      STAT G6505 (Stochastic Methods in Finance),                                     and MATH G8210 (Practitioners' Seminar)
不算seminar，四门开在统计下面，两门开在数学下面。
另外你看http://www.stat.columbia.edu/pages/programs/mamath/index.html这里，说的是数学和统计合办的。
所以，还是建议lz去chicago，经济学圣殿啊，金融也不差的说

呵呵  多谢多谢   其实这两个项目在很多方面太像了

不客气~想打听下lz的ibt单项，印象中chicago单项要求是26？这变态的分数让我望而生畏...
