Master 2 MMMEF: Modélisation et Méthodes Mathématiques en Economie et Finance
A Master 2 program in Paris city center
The Master 2 MMMEF (Modélisation et Méthodes Mathématiques en Economie et Finance) is a Master's program delivered at Université Paris 1 Panthéon-Sorbonne. With a wide variety of courses, all taught in English, the program aims at training high level specialists in financial mathematics, financial engineering, mathematical economics, game theory, optimization, control theory, data science, and operations research.
The program is divided into 4 tracks (see below) which are interrelated in terms of (i) the mathematical tools and concepts involved, and (ii) practical applications in the industry.
The courses cover a large range of mathematical techniques going from classical analysis, to probability, to optimization, to decision making, and cover both theoretical aspects and practical applications to economics, finance, data science, and operations research.

Four tracks
Economic Theory and Applications
The "Economic Theory and Applications" track provides high-level academic knowledge in mathematical economics, game theory, and decision theory. This track is mainly dedicated to students willing to apply for a PhD program in mathematical economics or economic theory at Université Paris 1 Panthéon-Sorbonne or anywhere in the world.
|
Economics, Finance and Games
The "Economics, Finance and Games" track provides high-level academic knowledge in mathematical economics, finance and game theory. This track is dedicated to students willing to be taught the quantitative tools of finance and economics without diving into the most advanced aspects of stochastic calculus. Graduates often start their career in the banking industry.
|
Quantitative Finance
The "Quantitative Finance" track is dedicated to students who wish to be taught high-level knowledge in stochastic calculus and financial modeling. Graduates often start their career in investment banks, asset management companies, or in consulting firms. They can also apply for a PhD program at Université Paris 1 Panthéon-Sorbonne or anywhere in the world.
|
Optimization and Control
The "Optimization and Control" track is dedicated to students who wish to be taught high-level mathematical knowledge in decision theory, optimization, control theory, and operations research. Graduates often start their career with quantitative positions in services industries. They can also apply for a PhD program at Université Paris 1 Panthéon-Sorbonne or anywhere in the world.

Living as a Master 2 MMMEF student
|
Almost all courses of the Master 2 MMMEF take place at Maison des Sciences Economiques, in inner Paris.
The program starts with a two-trimester period of courses. Students can then start an internship or carry out academic research and write a Master's thesis. For more details, see the dedicated page: Curriculum. |
