Career prospects for Imperial MSc Risk Management & Financial Engineering vs MathFin
Hey guys, hope y'all are doing good!
I recently got an offer from Imperial for RMFE. Not sure what the conditions are (I should know soon, hopefully today before the team go on holiday!).
I am interested in a career in quant. I have one or two projects (including my final year project), an internship at an IB, and have read some books so I think I am generally in a decent position at my current stage.
However, I hear that the reputation of Imperial RMFE, although very good for quant, is more for risk management and risk roles in general, rather than proper quant. I study Engineering btw, not Maths/Stats/Physics, so I wasn't able to apply for MathFin asper Imperial's requirements.
How true is this reputation, and is there any other advice anyone could give? Thanks a lot!
