Launch the new Math Finance Course with Department of Mathematics at School of Science

RiskVal Financial Solutions, a global supplier of Software as a Service (SaaS) for pre-trade analysis and risk management, is proud to announce a collaboration with National Tsing Hua University in an effort to nurture interest and advance the knowledge of students in fixed income securities. The goals of this course are to describe important fixed income securities and markets, and tools for valuation and risk management. The RiskVal team has developed a comprehensive curriculum for the online class and will teach and share its unique practical industry experience with the goal to better equip students to fulfill their potential and realize their professional goals. The course covers traditional bonds and term structure concepts as well as fixed income derivatives and interest rate modeling.

The collaboration is led by Dr. Wei-Cheng Wang, the Dean of the Department of Mathematics at NTHU. His research focuses on calculus, numerical analysis, and hydromechanics. Through these courses, the academic committee helps mathematics and finance-majored students develop 4 core abilities: 1) advance mathematical knowledge 2) discover, analyze and solve problems 3) apply mathematical concepts in other subjects 4) use mathematics for logical reasoning.

RiskVal's CEO Jordan Hu is a National Tsing Hua University alumnus, having earned a degree in applied math from the university in 1984. Inspired by the summer courses at the NTHU, Jordan pursued his Master's degree in computer science at New Jersey Institute of Technology and launched his career in finance. In Mr. Hu's own words: “If it was not for the summer courses and rigorous quantitative training at NTHU, I would not dare to have the epiphany of combining computer science with mathematics. Further, landing a career in the fixed income trading company. Therefore, I would like to contribute my knowledge and my experience to inspire the young generation in NTHU.”

NTHU and RiskVal are looking forward to many years of fruitful collaboration and envision developing new educational projects throughout the life of the alliance.

RiskVal Financial Solutions交易前分析和風險管理的軟體即時服務（SaaS）全球供應商宣布與國立清華大學合作開設「財務數學」課程，以培養並提高學生對固定收益證券的興趣與知識。本課程旨在介紹固定收益證券和市場、計價與風險管理的工具，涵蓋傳統債券和利率期限結構概念，以及固定收益衍生工具和利率模型。RiskVal團隊為此線上課程開發了一套通盤的課程，並將傳授和分享其獨特的實務經驗，以幫助學生發揮潛能並培養他們的專業職能。

這項合作在清華大學是由研究微積分、數值分析和流體力學的數學系系主任王偉成教授所主導。透過這些課程，希望幫助主修數學和財務金融的學生發展出4種核心能力：1）提升數學知識2）發現、分析和解決問題3）將數學概念應用在其他學科上4）將數學用於邏輯推理。

RiskVal執行長胡國琳（Jordan Hu）是清華大學數學系1984級的校友。受清華大學暑期課程的啟發，赴美國新澤西理工學院（New Jersey Institute of Technology）攻讀計算機工程碩士學位，並朝財務金融業發展。胡國琳說：「在清華大學暑期課程和嚴格的計量訓練，讓我體認到將計算機工程與數學結合，進而在固定收益交易產業中發展。因此，我想貢獻自己的知識和經驗，以啟發清華的年輕一代的學生。」

期待在RiskVal和清華大學合作期間，開發新的教育計劃，進行長久且成效卓著的合作。
