Financial engineering is a multidisciplinary field involving financial theories, methods of engineering, tools of mathematics and the practice of ^programming.It has also been defined as the application of technical methods, especially from mathematical finance and computational finance, in the practice of finance. Despite its name, financial engineering does not belong to any of the fields in traditional professional engineering even though many financial engineers have studied engineering beforehand and many universities offering a postgraduate degree in this field require applicants to have a background in engineering as well. In the United States, the Accreditation Board for Engineering and Technology (ABET) does not accredit financial engineering degrees. In the United States, financial engineering programs are accredited by the International Association of Quantitative Finance.As the undergraduate program of Finance, you will receive training in the principles of Finance and their application to a range of problems, including financial policy and financial market. Based around a core of monetary economics, Microeconomics, Macroeconomics and Applied Econometrics, the programs offer a wide selection of optional courses reflecting the diverse research interests and expertise of a large faculty body. The goal of this program is to cultivate students’ ability in mastering the basic principle of economics and management and analyzing the practical issues by using statistics and applied financial econometrics. After graduation from this program, the students should become high-level professional talents with profound basic theories and sound specialized knowledge in the fields of finance economics and management and the ability of understanding financial policy and market.This is a four-year undergraduate program, which can be completed within a minimum of three years and a maximum of seven years. A total of 158 credits are required upon the completion of the program, which include 49 credits from General Education Curriculum, 42 credits from Basic Curriculum, 39 credits from Essential Curriculum and 28 credits from Elective Curriculum.

Financial engineering draws on tools from applied mathematics, computer science, statistics and economic theory. In the broadest sense, anyone who uses technical tools in finance could be called a financial engineer, for example any computer programmer in a bank or any statiscisan in a government economic bureau.However, most practitioners restrict the term to someone educated in the full range of tools of modern finance and whose work is informed by financial theory. It is sometimes restricted even further, to cover only those originating new financial products and strategies. Financial engineering plays a key role in the customer-driven derivatives business^. which encompasses quantitative modelling and programming, trading and risk managing derivative products in compliance with the regulations and Basel capital/liquidity requirements

The main cause of a pending application is usually incomplete application documents. As a result you will be requested by the school’s admission office to re-check and modify all submitted application documents or perhaps even add extra documents and then re-submit them.

To avoid further delays, carefully read the university’s comments, modify your application form on ACASC, and re-upload the required application documents. You can contact ACASC on admission@acasc.cn for any help with regards to your pending application
