“Mälardalens Högskola”

Mathematics

Overall

I have been studying Applied mathematics (specialization in Financial Engineering) at this university. This program comprises Mathematics, Economics and Finance courses. The mathematics courses which are from basic to advanced levels have helped me to understand the finance world in detail. To mention some, i have taken the courses portfolio management, Finance, Stochastic processes, Financial mathematics and operation research. The teachers have a good knowledge and they were trying their best to make us better. Students are few in number and they are from all over the world and we have a good relationship.

Pros

Finacial engineering is given only at this university in sweden.

Cons

none

Course recommendations

The course I was enrolled in was designed for students with 1-2 years of previous Swedish language instruction. I had only one year of experience and was shocked when I learned that all of the other international students taking the course had more than 4 years of experience. I found that it was a more advanced course than I was ready for, so I recommend you have at least 3 years of experience behind you before you sign up. The experience would have been much more educational if I had been at the same level of my peers.

Personal recommendation

I have to say "takkso mycket" for all. It was a great time and it is still impossible for me to wake up with a bright smile. Out of my point of view you are very well supported, the working atmosphere is more than good, but it is also impossible to compare the university level with the level of my home university for example. Both systems are very different from each other.

Course recommendations

The university is going through major restructuring and building projects at the moment. Work is still being done on various of its buildings. This is causing some disturbances, and general confusion amongst staff and students alike. Generally the planning that has been carried out left a lot to be desired, but may improve considerally in the near future. Many courses to choose from, but most are in swedish! Most internationally related courses are given in english as well.
