    根据校历安排,2015年北京大学暑期学校于7月13日——8月14日期间举行,国家发展研究院本次暑期学校邀请纽约城市大学柏鲁克学院金融工程项目的王太和教授开设《Topics in Market Microstructure Models》,该课程共十六学时,计一学分,上课时间为7月13日起每周二、四下午5-8节,共两周。

    在读双学位学生请于2015年4月20日10:00——5月4日24:00登录双学位选课平台http://ss.nsd.pku.edu.cn:8080/ccer/CourseCCER/CourseCCER.html进行选课。此次选课使用意愿点排序方式进行筛选,初选结果可于5月5日10:00后登录该系统查询。5月6日9:00——5月10日24:00期间可进行退换课。

注意事项:

1、请用IE浏览器登录选课系统。

2、由于学校教务部的网络与中心使用的选课平台尚未实现联网,选课结果仍需在学校教务网进行最终核对,请于5月12日登录:http://dean.pku.edu.cn/ 核对选课结果。若发现问题请于5月13日16:00之前致电62758978、62753082联系双学位办公室进行更正,逾期则无法修改。若不核对造成不正确的选课结果,责任自负。

 

课程介绍:

The course aims at introducing market microstructure models from economics, mathematics, and physics viewpoints. In order to prepare the student into the core, the course also offers a crash course on stochastic calculus and stochastic control theory. Upon completion, students are expected to understand the market microstructure models covered in the course and possess basic skills to implement the models.

 

Course Policy: Homework will be assigned every meeting. Students are encouraged to discuss the homework with other students. No late homework will be accepted unless previous arrangements have been made.

 

Grading: The course is graded based on homework assignments and the final exam according to the formula: Grade = HW * 60% + Final * 40%

 

Cheating: There is a zero-tolerance policy on cheating. Academic dishonesty, including but not restricted to cheating, forgery, plagiarism and collusion in dishonest acts, is unacceptable and will not be tolerated. Anyone caught cheating on a homework or test will receive a grade F for the course.

 

Prerequisites: Students are expected to have taken advanced mathematics courses, or with equivalent skills, such as multivariate calculus, linear algebra, and probability and stochastic processes. Though not required, previous exposures to martingale theory and stochastic calculus is an advantage.
