As a potential BS/MS for Math's candidate at Georgia Tech, I'm trying to properly research which specific maths subjects to take at GaTech in hopes of getting a career in quantitative finance. I'd then possibly pursue a Masters in Math in Finance or MFE, but that's far from now.
Kindly would anyone possibly be able to help me plan out (go through the course options/links 1 & 2 below) in selecting the specific math courses I should take at GaTech to set myself up for success (and use my resources to the fullest extent)? Possibly through this thread or via zoom/private DMs -- whatever works best!
Here are the links to both undergrad/grad math courses, as well as the BS & MS programs for GaTech:
1. Undergrad Math Courses List: [https://math.gatech.edu/projected-s.../projected-schedule-of-undergraduate-courses)
2. Grad Courses: [https://math.gatech.edu/projected-s...h.edu/projected-schedule-of-graduate-courses)
3. BS Math: [https://math.gatech.edu/undergradua...math.gatech.edu/undergraduate/bs-mathematics)
4. MS Math: [https://math.gatech.edu/graduate/ms-mathematics](https://math.gatech.edu/graduate/ms-mathematics)
5. BS/MS Math: [https://math.gatech.edu/undergradua...th.gatech.edu/undergraduate/bsms-mathematics)
I'll definitely try and talk to my advisors and relevant alumni, but anyone from here willing to help as well would be great too!
DISCLAIMER: To be clear so there’s no misunderstanding, I‘ve already seen a bunch of Reddit posts and articles about the specific math courses to take (saved the links and all too) and have a decent idea already of what courses to take... I’m more so asking someone who’s an expert in the field to possibly help further guide me lol... like specific question I was gonna as in DMs or private convo would be for example is it important to take the “Calculus of Variations” course offered (since I heard it's important here: https://qr.ae/p2GrSg)?
