    Teaching Period : 2022-2023 Spring IV
    2023-2024 Spring IV

    Enrollment :

    A maximum of 64 students can be accepted to the course.

    The course uses a waitlist and a pre-course assignment that is due on the day preceding the day of the first lecture. To confirm their attendance on the course, the admitted students are required to pass this assignment.

    Students at Aalto Finance M.Sc. programme (i.e. who have graduated as B.Sc.) will be prioritized when admitting students to the course. Students re-taking the course (grade already registered) will not be prioritized and can participate only if there are places remaining.

    Remaining seats are prioritized as follows:
    1. Finance M.Sc. exchange students from other universities
    2. Aalto Finance B.Sc. students with 150 credits and a finished B.Sc. thesis completed (registered in transcript of records)
    3. All other M.Sc. students at the School of Business

    Please follow carefully the registration deadlines of the courses and exams! Missing registration deadline automatically foregoes a prioritized seat for Finance M.Sc. students and puts prospective students at the bottom of the prioritization list.
