Starting September 2008 the University of Chicago's Master of Science in Financial Mathematics program will be taught in Singapore. The courses will be taught through a combination of interactive video conferencing and live on-site lectures by University of Chicago faculty.
The curriculum and courses are identical to those of the Chicago program. Each course meets 3 hours per week and there are additional tutorial sessions.
The live classes will be taught 8-11am, Tuesdays, Thursdays and Fridays and the recorded lectures can be viewed in the classroom from 7-10pm on the same days. The recorded lectures can also be viewed anytime after that on a personal computer through a broad-band internet connection. The tuition is S$6500 for each credit (one 10 week course). A total of 9 credits are required for the Master's degree.

The program will start taking applications for both full and part-time students on March 1 and the dead-line for applications will be May 1.
