Did you see our ad?

Our ad features the famous Black-Scholes equation, which allows traders and analysts to determine the price of options on stocks. The publication of this equation sparked the mathematical revolution in Finance and Risk Management, and led to the awarding of the 1997 Nobel Prize to Myron Scholes and Robert Merton.

Students in the Master of Science in Mathematical Finance program at UNC Charlotte study the financial theory and advanced mathematics that drive equations such as Black-Scholes. They develop an understanding of the economics of financial risk management and the ways in which firms use derivatives and other tools to manage that risk.

Our students will be leaders in both the Charlotte and national quantitative finance communities. If you are interested in exercising your options and developing your financial risk management skills, we are the program for you. For more information about our curriculum, our admissions requirements, and the placements successes of our students, please see the rest of our web page, or contact Dr. Richard Buttimer at (704) 687-6219.
