The program offers students a tuition-free two-year education in financial engineering.
“It went live about a year ago, and now we have 600 students who have enrolled from all over the world,” Daphne Kis, CEO of WorldQuant University, told Business Insider.
Financial engineering draws from several fields, including computer science, economics, and mathematics. As such, the program’s course load, according to the program’s site, covers economic theory and statistics and provides students the opportunity to work with programming languages such as Python and MATLAB.
