I am planning to do a MBA with specialisation in finance from the US, but I am also looking for some good options like MS or MA in financial mathematics.
Some of the Top MBA (Finance) courses in the US are offered at Kellog, Wharton, Harvard, Duke, Michigan, Virginia, Columbia, Cornell, Chicago, Stanford.
NYU, University of Chicago, Stanford, Columbia have some of the best programs in Financial Mathematics. Please check them out to see if their offering matches your requirement.
Actually, there are many programs which have a curriculum similar to MS Financial Mathematics. MS Computational Finance is one of them. A few others that you might want to consider are MS Quantitative Finance, MS Financial Markets, MS Mathematical Finance, et al. Check out the Carnegie Mellon, IIT Stuart and Polytechnic University websites. They offer some good programs that you might find interesting.
Further to my answer on recruitment to the Judge Advocate Generals (JAG) Department on February 27,2006 in this column, I would like to add that both male and women candidates can join the department (although a separate notification is issued for recruiting males and females).
Moreover there is some good news for women aspirants. The Army Headquarters has decided to substantially increase the number of women officers in the JAG Department. Presently, the total sanctioned strength of officers in JAG is 216.
Selection: The Service Selection Board conducts an exacting screening process spread over Five days including group tests, psychological tests and interview. Make sure you are medically fit, as you wouldnt want to get so far and then be rejected on medical grounds.
While the training period for women is currently six-month (which is likely to go up to 11-month), women aspirants should refer to the June notification of Employment News under the Women Special Entry Scheme for eligibility criteria and other details.
For further information, contact Recruiting Directorate - (Officer Selection), Army HQ: West Block-Ill, R K Puram, New Delhi 110066.
