SigmaField

Tracks

Specialise with a track.

A track takes you from the foundations through the core theory of one field to its application, and ends with a final project. Each track will lead to a SigmaField certificate.

How a track works

Four stages, in an order that works.

  1. 1Foundations

    Mathematical Foundations and Financial Computing: the levels and parts your track uses.

    Required, but you can test out of levels you already know.

  2. 2Core theory

    Two or three core courses: the models and methods the field relies on.

  3. 3Application

    One application course: the work of a pricing, portfolio or trading desk.

  4. 4Project and certificate

    A desk-style final project, graded on our servers, then your SigmaField certificate.

    Certificates coming soon
