<p>1)Is Financial Engineering a good major which is respected by the employers?
2)Does it have a high job prospect?
3)What are the companies that the Financial Engineers can work in?
4)What are the best Financial Engineering schools?</p>
<p>Note: Please don't write that Financial Engineering is not considered as an engineering at all. Because I am already sick of it.</p>
<ol>
<li>Financial engineering is a great major.</li>
<li>Financial engineers have great job prospects.</li>
<li>Financial engineers generally work in the backroom of investment banks.</li>
<li>Research it yourself.</li>
</ol>
<p>Note: You need a MFE before you can do serious financial engineering work. And it is not engineering… It is a business field.</p>
<p>I’ve heard that MFE majors mostly get careers that involve a lot of programming. Is this true? If so, on average, what percent of their job would involve writing programs?</p>
<p>Here is the link to my scholl’s MFE program</p>

<p>You can find there what kind of jobs do people usually get. I’m considering that program myself.</p>
