Lecture Contact Hours: 3   Lab Contact Hours: 0
Prerequisite: Graduate standing and FINA 6A35.

This course studies the fundamentals of innovations in quantitative finance. It provides an extended introduction to basic stochastic calculus, and major valuation techniques -PDE methods and martingale methods - applied to a variety of derivative contracts. Students will learn to implement PDE and martingale models using numerical methods - PDE solvers and Monte Carlo techniques - and will also investigate how to utilize basic econometric techniques to evaluate and validate models.
