Financial Engineering Phd

[Pig]

I will be graduating in master of computer science this fall semester.

I would like to apply for financial engineering phd in US.
How likely it is for me to get accepted into this program?
In my master, I took courses related to computer science (not that much related to Financial Engineering). But I do like maths a lot.

Which website would have financial engineering phd ranking?

Thanks.

Pig,

You will have to elaborate lot more on your profile for someone to be able to help you.

Very unlikely.

There is nothing much to elaborate. My master of computer science is just a normal one.

I just would like to get into Financial Engineering phd for a normal or average school. No need top school.

I understand that if I get into one, I will need to take basic courses to adjust my Financial Engineering basic knowledge. That's ok with me.

But the most difficult thing is that it's really difficult for me to get accepted.

Note that there aren't many Ph.D programs which specifically designate their degree as "Financial Engineering."

To find broader Ph.D. programs in which you could choose to specialize in this field, you might want to look at programs in Operations Research, for example.
