The MFE program at Lehigh does an excellent job of intertwining the three disciplines of industrial engineering, mathematics, and finance. Each course is extensive and vital to the understanding and preparation of a job in the quant finance industry. All the professors are intelligent, knowledgable, and helpful across most all of the courses. There are many resources amongst the staff involved in the MFE program including advisors and alumni. Lastly, there are many opportunities to get involved in projects on campus directly relating to finance. I would highly recommend this program for those looking for rigorous academia, a friendly campus environment, and strong alumni network.
