Desislava Ivanova: Quantitative Research Analyst at UBS

MMORSE 2016

Quantitative Research Analyst at UBS, London

MMORSE is a wonderful combination of Mathematics, Optimisation, Statistics and Economics, allowing you to explore each of these areas in the first two years and then specialise in what you find most interesting.

I chose to follow the Statistics with Mathematics stream, which has provided me with deep understanding of statistics and probability theory. I thoroughly enjoyed my degree and my personal highlights from it are:

• the Erasmus year at LMU Munich
• my fourth-year dissertation in the field of applied probability
• the opportunity to teach students during my Master's year.
