个人认为,既然你的本科已经是统计了,那不如去学金融数学,这样,两个方面的知识都有所涉及。另外想说的是,港科的这个项目的director Prof. Yue-Kuen Kwok是非常牛的教授,在亚洲应该算是最好的了。亚洲的金融数学有名的几个教授主要在1.NUS: Prof. Steven Kou, Prof. Min Dai, 2. HKUST: Prof. Kwok, Prof. lixing Wu 3. CUHK: Prof. Nan Chen 4. Shang dong University: Shige Peng.
而亚洲地区最好的金融数学项目是新加坡南洋理工的金融工程和HKUST的金融数学。
both are solid program............the reputation are similar also.
i.e. depends on your background, and career goal, and academic interest.
8th floor's advise is very solid (though I don't agree 100%, but closed to).
i will say, if you want to go into finance (quantitative side), choose the HKUST one.
