Miriam Childs, Admissions Director for the Master of Financial Engineering (MFE) at UC Berkeley Haas, is coming to Berlin on March 25th, and she's offered to host a small, intimate session at CODE.
This is a rare chance to get direct, honest answers about one of the most respected one-year master's programs and schools in finance and quantitative methods in the world.

What to expect:
Straight talk on admissions, GPA, GMAT/GRE, and what makes a strong application
How to get into Berkeley
Overview of the MFE curriculum, career outcomes, and recruiting
