Im a graduate student at the University of Minnesota. Can I get a minor in the Master of Financial Mathematics program?
I’m afraid there is no minor for this program. This is a professional program and it’s not really set up so that people from other programs can take MFM courses without first enrolling into the program. There is a slight exception, but it involves taking preparatory courses, which would not be reasonable to count as fulfilling minor requirements. Please see Q12 above, for more information about courses and MFM related activities that are available to graduate students not in the MFM program. Instead of a MFM minor, you might want to consider taking MATH 5075 – Mathematics of Options, Futures, and Derivative Securities I MATH 5076 – Mathematics of Options, Futures, and Derivative Securities II, and both of those courses could contribute toward a regular Mathematics Minor. Please see http://www.math.umn.edu/grad/math_minors.html for information about Mathematics Minors.
