Master in Financial Engineering (DISC)

At RPTU University Kaiserslautern-Landau, the tuition fee is 4,480 EUR per year.

Financial Engineering is a six-semester distance learning master's programme at RPTU University Kaiserslautern-Landau aimed at graduates of mathematics or mathematics-intensive subjects who want to acquire detailed knowledge of financial mathematics. The programme covers financial mathematics, interest rate models, insurance mathematics, financial statistics, risk measures and rating systems, economics of banking, financial decision making, and computational finance. The format combines self-study using materials developed specifically for distance learning, an online campus as an interactive learning platform, and mandatory on-campus phases held once per semester over a long weekend in Kaiserslautern. Study content can be accessed at any time, though fixed exam dates structure the academic calendar. For those who want a focused one-year introduction to financial mathematics without obtaining a further Master's degree, the university also offers a separate distance learning programme in Applied Financial Mathematics. The programme starts in the winter semester and is offered at RPTU University Kaiserslautern-Landau in Kaiserslautern, Germany.
