As far as financial engineering is concerned IIQF is debatably the only Institute in India capable of ably equipping learners the right skillsets to thrive and/or even break into Quant finance, mainly for three reasons, according to my humble observation: (A) Sufficiently mathematically rigorous syllabus coupled with the most concrete and practical of course exercises using SOTA quant risk methods mainly in python programming language (with PoC excel models to always fall back on) (B) Taught by a team of faculty members who not only are already at the pinnacle of academia but also well-seasoned industry practitioners themselves and very passionate about quant finance education in general. (C) Last and most important concern for many i.e. job placements. Although this is the only part I cannot guarantee a 100℅ on, but if it makes you feel any better, I myself broke into the industry with a quant finance profile (Market risk model validation in Big 4), that too as a fresher, through IIQF job placement opportunities. One can get (A) or (B) or (C) seperately and add them all up from anywhere else including the top elite tech/business schools (Yes! not even kidding!) but they wouldn't get ABC. The whole (ABC) is better than the sum of the individual parts (A+B+C)PS: I am forever indebted to this Institute, to the finest of teachers who are as approachable and yet amazing human beings, and last but not the least to Nitish, the person who deserves much more credit than this short review can possibly give. He is someone who actually, I mean actually gets and understands what concerns/requirements do quant finance aspirants have and would so much as go out of his way to address and fulfill each and every need. Rest assured IIQF is not doing it for the money, that I'm 100% confident of saying. What sets apart IIQF perhaps from the rest is, they are driven by a strong passion (including passion of teaching) and zeal to bridge the quant finance education gap, not just in India but across the board. Thank you once again IIQF! Kindest regards, Siam
