It is the first academic program in Financial Engineering in Turkey that is approved by Higher Education Council (YÖK). It is organized as a Secondary Graduate Program of the Institute for Graduate Studies in Science and Engineering.
The main objective of the program is to provide graduate level technical education to students who want to work in the new and growing finance industry. This includes investment banks and corporations, financial management and consulting companies, insurance companies and firms that invest in financial markets. Students will be exposed to a technically rigorous curriculum that provides a strong base in quantitative techniques and stochastic modeling. The main emphasis is on the application of these techniques and models in financial markets through computational methods and simulation. Graduates will be equipped with the necessary tools and techniques to evaluate financial markets, determine investment strategies, as well as design, engineer and market new financial products. Due to the apparent diversity of the educational program, it has an interdisciplinary structure that involves the three main schools of the university.
