<p>I’m talkin upstanding colleges too. Not Montana state if u feel me.</p>

2

<p>Financial engineering or computational finance appears to be mainly a master’s degree program.</p>

<p>Undergraduate preparation for such would likely be strongest with a background in math, statistics, computer science, economics, and/or operations research.</p>

<p>My best friend’s brother went to Illinois Wesleyan for undergrad and Illinois University Urbana-Champaign for graduate school. He now makes six figures in the computational finance field. Other than that anecdote, I can’t really help much :-/</p>

<p>The school of engineering at Columbia University offers an undergraduate concentration in financial engineering.
[OR:</a> Financial Engineering](<a href=“http://www.ieor.columbia.edu/pages/undergraduate/financial_eng/index.html]OR:”>http://www.ieor.columbia.edu/pages/undergraduate/financial_eng/index.html)</p>

<p>My friend at Princeton is majoring in financial engineering.</p>

<p>Carnegie Mellon University (CMU) offers a [B.S. degree in computational finance](<a href=“Bachelors of Science in Computational Finance - Mathematical Sciences - Mellon College of Science - Carnegie Mellon University”>http://www.math.cmu.edu/undergraduate/bscf.html&lt;/a&gt;) as well as a master’s program (MCF). </p>

<p>The master’s program in particular was ranked #1 in the US in 2011 by [QuantNet](<a href=“2023 QuantNet Ranking of Best Financial Engineering Programs | QuantNet Community”>2023 QuantNet Ranking of Best Financial Engineering Programs | QuantNet Community). I assume the undergraduate program should be equally strong.</p>

<p>Just for you have a better idea, here is the [recommended course sequence](<a href=“Bachelors of Science in Computational Finance - Mathematical Sciences - Mellon College of Science - Carnegie Mellon University”>http://www.math.cmu.edu/undergraduate/bscf_courses.html&lt;/a&gt;) for the bachelor’s degree. It is an intense program, but it looks pretty solid.</p>

<p>At Northwestern, there’s no financial engineering major. But econ/IEMS + Kellogg certificate will give you the technical skills you desire. MMSS is another excellent program for enhancing quant skills.</p>

<p>Teams from Kellogg cert program had done very well in trading competitions (Rotman International Trading Competition and Traders@MIT competition) against mostly other graduate teams in finance/math fin/financial engineering.</p>
