Testimonial From the Managing Director of GARP

We are very pleased to welcome another program from the Naveen Jindal School of Management at The University of Texas at Dallas to GARP’s Partnership for Risk Education. The newly launched Master of Science in Financial Engineering and Risk Management has been developed with the rigors of the field of quantitative finance in mind. It will provide its students with an integrated curriculum through which students will obtain a foundation in data analytics and risk management techniques, ensuring they will be well-positioned to pursue the FRM designation and assume strategic roles within the global risk management profession.
