It details course offerings across four semesters, including Fall 2022, Spring 2023, Fall 2023, and an optional Spring 2024 semester. Each semester lists specific course codes and their corresponding titles, indicating core requirements and recommended electives. Notably, Spring 2023 features several advanced courses such as 'Fixed Income Securities' (highly recommended), 'Computational Methods,' 'Advanced Programming for Finance,' 'Advanced Machine Learning for Finance,' 'Algorithmic and High-Frequency Trading,' 'Portfolio Theory 1,' 'Financial Econometrics,' and PhD courses in 'Advanced Capital Markets' and 'Advanced Topics in Asset Pricing.' Fall 2023 includes 'Portfolio Theory 2,' 'Corporate Risk Management,' 'Economics of FinTech,' 'Advanced Derivatives,' 'Credit Risk,' 'Advanced Computational Methods,' and 'Accounting for Risk and Portfolio Management.' The optional fourth semester in Spring 2024 allows for any MSMFT elective or any BU graduate elective with approval. The document also provides a grading scale, with 'Superior Performance' equating to an 'A' grade with a 4.0 GPA, 'Good Performance' as 'B+' with a 3.3 GPA, and other unspecified grades likely following a standard descending scale, implying a rigorous academic evaluation system within the MSMFT program.","| Fall 2022 |  |\n| --- | --- |\n| MF702\u003Cbr>MF703\u003Cbr>MF790\u003Cbr>MF793\u003Cbr>* FE918 | Fundamentals of Finance\u003Cbr>Programming for Quant.
