Good UK MFE programs

[cesc]

Hi, I'm a current final year undergrad student. I wish to apply of Master of Financial Engineering programs in UK. As there are pretty many rankings for US unis while none for UK. I wish to get some advice which UK programs are suitable for me if i want to become a quant?

For Imperial College, I know there is one Master in Mathematics and Finance under Math school, and one Master in Risk Management and FE under business school. Which one do you think is more recoginized from IB front offices points of view?

Also for LSE, would you suggest it ? which program is good ?

Thank you very much.

Cesc - I hear Warwick business school is very good, I don't know though if they offer a MFE course though. Have you checked Cambridge as well?

I would have though LSE is a good bet. The UoL which LSE is a part of also offers courses via the International programme if you want to study part time whilst working.

what's your degree in ?

I don't believe Cambridge has an MFE, but their masters of finance is 2 years and they offer many quant electives.

Check out: Oxford, Cambridge, LSE, Imperial, City University London (Cass business school), Warwick. You generally want a brand name or something close to London.

I think OXFORD MFE is quite well. no any info about LSE.
BTW, ICMA in Reading University has MFE program and its former director is Neftic who was so inspired in industry and academic field. I think ICMA is a good choice regardless of the rank of Reading University

Wow, yes. Cambridge does have one. But it is Master of Finance.

Btw, which program in LSE would you suggest? Master of Finance or Master of Finance and Econs ?
