Introduction

Program ARIMA is fully conducted in English. Here you will learn about the practical ways of applying quantitative methods in finance and insurance. The program concentrates on practical aspects of measurement and risk valuation in asset management (both in financial and insurance markets).

The students of this specialization have an amazing opportunity to gain additional diplomas (Double Degree) from universities:

  • University of Applied Sciences BFI Vienna (Austria);
  • University of Bologna (Italy)
  • Alexandru Ioan Cuza University of Iaşi (Romania)
  • University of Economics in Katowice (Poland).

Moreover, thanks to CFA accreditation, the best students may get funding for examinations. As for PRMIA accreditation, it allows students to pass one of two PRMs ( Professional Risk Manager).

Are you ambitious and do you have a clearly defined goal? Is the world of numbers and finance your cup of tea? Do you have aspirations for an international career? Then ARIMA is for you! The double degree, international experience, and specialized language skills prepare you to enter the world of international finance, where your working opportunities are just around the corner!

Program structure

The program was constructed to balance the theory of asset and risk management with its practical counterpart. ARIMA students broaden their knowledge in the field of risk measurement, valuation of financial instruments as well as model-based management. Additionally, the use of IT tools (VBA, R, MATLAB, Python) provides support during the process of knowledge application, where it can become a fundament of understanding the advanced modeling and valuation techniques.

In this course, students work in small groups. The individual approach allows a more flexible timetable, for example, modules 2 days per week. The elastic study time and also fitting the exam schedules for the working students is a perfect option for those who want to start their career during university.

Lecturers

Our professors create a highly qualified team with fluent English skills, and the majority have great experience in international cooperation. They apply innovative educational methodologies, such as acquisition methods or practical methods with the use of new technologies eg. simulator games. For the students, they combine the theory of business with the practical aspects of it. Our University frequently invites guest professors from foreign Universities, but also professionals from the field, among all from UBS Solution - the business partner of the course ( and the whole Finance and Accounting Department).
