This is an app to make a course, Financial Engineering and Risk Management II, enrolled at coursera.org more mobile friendly.
The course instructors are Martin Haugh and Garud Iyengar. The course will also feature an interview with Emanuel Derman, a colleague of Martin and Garuds in the IEOR Department at Columbia.
Our course assistant is George Wang. He will be helping us with the uploading of lectures and quizzes etc, as well as helping us troubleshoot any problems that might arise with the videos. Wed also like to thank Pu He and Marco Santoli, both of whom are graduate students in the IEOR department at Columbia. Pu helped create a couple of spreadsheets (one of which we used to create the CDO plots to be seen in FE & RM Part II) and Marco created the cool(!) Matlab video (also to be seen in FE & RM Part II) which showed how the volatility surface of the S&P 500 index moved during the height of the financial crisis.
