<p>I am like an above average math student. I know i am decent but i am not like genius by any standards. Often i feel i am not understanding the material i am learning(expecially that homogenious intergration crep). Does finincial engineering and engineering in general require really advanced mathematical ability. I am like in ap stat and bc and all but i dont feel i am really that good at math. Do you guys ever feel how i feel and do u think i have a viable future if i want to pursue this field?</p>
<p>I'm not 100% sure, but Finance+engineering, seems like a lot of math to me.</p>
<p>It's not a lot of math. You take Calc, linAlg, and Diffeq. <--- Different schools maybe slightly different.</p>
<p>red sox, i have almost the exact same stats as you. what schools did u get into?</p>
<p>The financial engineering program that I'm interested in requires you to know calculus up to DEs, linear algebra, and statistics as basic requirements. It also requires you to have a general understanding of measure and integration as well as probability spaces. It teaches quite a bit of stochastic calculus in the program. </p>
<p>I just listed a few math topics that I don't even know the meanings of, let alone understand the math.</p>
