Hey i/BBAs: If you’re still looking for an elective for the Winter term, here’s one that has us excited!
You can boost your financial literacy, learn an advanced skill set, and do it all with no coding background. Hear what Professor Moshe Milevsky has to say about this new course below.
FINE 4060 3.00: Advanced Personal Finance
with Professor Moshe Milevsky
Offered Winter 2018: Tuesdays, 11:30am – 2:30pm
I am very excited to be teaching Advanced Personal Finance (FINE 4050), which is a new course offered for the first time to BBA students at Schulich in Winter 2018. The course will teach students how to solve advanced decision-making problems in retirement income planning, using the R-script programming language.
The course requires absolutely no background in coding or computer science, but learning how to create R-scripts will enable students to easily work with (large) datasets and understand the sophisticated optimization algorithms (i.e. robo-advisors) being developed in the financial industry for lifecycle decision-making.
If you have any interest in working in the wealth management business, trust me that this course will help you stand-out and differentiate yourself from the crowds.
Moshe A. Milevsky, Finance Professor
