Is there a difference between computational finance and risk management and financial engineering
Looking into these programs which would be more suited for an aspring quant developer like me :))
1. University of Oxford: MSc in Mathematical and Computational Finance
2. Imperial College London: MSc Risk Management & Financial Engineering
3. UCL: MSc Financial Mathematics
4. King’s College London: MSc Computational Finance
5. Imperial College London: MSc in Mathematics and Finance
6. UCL: MSc Computatipnal finance
 
I believe none of these programs might be the perfect fit for you. Instead, it could be more beneficial to pursue an advanced computer science degree that focuses deeply on computational efficiency and machine learning software engineering.

Although Computational Finance includes "computational" in its name, it often focuses on the numerical solutions aspects of the mathematics behind finance, such as the Euler scheme for solving SDEs or advances in financial ML, rather than on high-performance parallel and distributed systems crucial for HFT.
