Derivative Securities Analysis
This module explores the key concepts and theories of financial derivatives. The focus is mainly on futures and options whose underlying asset is a financial asset (e.g., stock index options). Students will learn how to price these derivatives with the use of suitable pricing models. Additionally, they will learn how to use them to implement various risk management strategies. Overall, this module will enable students to possess a solid knowledge on derivatives and will give them the foundation to read further in the area and at a more advanced level (e.g., high quality journals). -

Derivatives Trading Book Management with Programming
Derivatives Trading Book Management with Programming is a practically focused advanced course in the market-making of derivatives products using computational modelling. Students will get a bird's eye view of the derivatives industry, and the roles of the major buy- and sell-side players, across all underlying asset classes. They will learn how to use the main 'vanilla' products - forwards, swaps, options, caps and floors - to structure bespoke features and exotic contracts for prospective clients. Using Python, students will create their own Monte Carlo engine and use it in the practice of market making: pricing, dynamic hedging, and risk management. Finally, students will learn about the role and social impact of financial market regulations. -

Desert Landscapes: Modelling and Measuring Aeolian Systems
Some of the biggest uncertainties in climate change predictions come from our lack of understanding of the impact of some of the smallest airborne dust particles. These dust particles are transported between continents from some of the hottest and most unpopulated regions on our planet, and potentially end up fertilising tropical rain forests or ocean algal blooms. Yet, even in the harshest of desert environments, vegetation or bacteria may still exist, and help to shape the windy landscapes that they reside in. Landscapes where wind-blown sand forms some of the most exquisite, self-organised patterns visible on satellite images and recognisable on other planets. -
