Master 2 MMMEF - Curriculum
Students involved in the Master 2 MMMEF program have their academic year divided into two parts:
- a first part (two trimesters) with fundamental courses, specialization, and advanced courses,
- a second part during which students either do an internship or carry out academic research and write a Master's thesis (you cannot choose both internship and academic research).
Each student admitted to the Master's program has to follow one of the four tracks:
- Economic Theory and Applications,
- Economics, Finance and Games,
- Quantitative Finance,
- Optimization and Data Science.
As far as courses are concerned, students need to validate:
- 20 ECTS in the list of fundamental courses (UE1),
- 20 ECTS in the list of specialization and advanced courses (UE2).
- 20 ECTS for the internship or the Master thesis.
Compulsory courses:
- Students enrolled in the "Economic Theory and Applications" track have to take 7.5 ECTS among the following courses: General equilibrium theory 1 and 2, Game theory 1 and 2, and Decision making: foundations
- Students enrolled in the "Economics, Finance and Games" have to take the course Introductory finance and either General equilibrium theory 1 and 2 or Game theory 1 and 2.
- Students enrolled in the "Quantitative Finance" have to take the following compulsory courses: Stochastic Calculus 1, Arbitrage theory, Introductory finance, and Stochastic Calculus 2.
- Students enrolled in the "Optimization and Data Science" track have to take the following compulsory courses: Combinatorial optimization, Numerical methods in optimization, Statistical Learning, and Convex analysis and optimization.
The choice of courses need to be approved by the supervisor of the student's track.
