Its questions which have been narrowed to your field of study. In my case they were mostly mathematics

Yes, work permit has always been an issue, didn't start today, but top firms overseas have not stopped hiring non citizens. No one said study a course that would make you as competitive as/ more competitive than citizens of a foreign country who studied the same course and has a similar level of talents like you. What I'm saying is that you should study a course that is panoramically competitive.

I won't pay such a huge amount of money to study in the UK, except of course the school is top. There are programmes in quant fin elsewhere in Europe where you pay less than 1000 pounds equivalent and still enjoy the benefits of applying to companies in those countries and also in the UK. Search for quant fin/quant economics programmes in Germany, France and elsewhere in Europe where fees are low. Save the extra 11000 pounds that you would have spent studying in the UK. Jena in Germany has a programme in business mathematics that charges about 500 pounds per year. There are many programmes like that, and you stand a good chance of acceptance if your BSc degree is above average.

To get strong answers, you will have to be specific on which part of Europe you've gotten this opportunity. You also have to know the industry you eventually want to be.

Meanwhile, I've your same background and did a master's degree in quant fin-eco. I believe the fact that I had some little industry experience in capital markets before my quant MSc actually helped my job search. I've worked in investment banking and now an assistant vice president in a related sector. I don't work in Nigeria.

In your shoes, I would do quant finance. The material covered in Info Tech can be picked easily without the need for master's education. Many people without university degrees, or with university degrees unrelated to IT, are now IT experts and have consistently proven that you need no IT background to work in core IT. The same is not true for quant fin. Now take the two sets and see which is bigger.

To be frank with you, there is no traditional quant fin role in Nigeria as the material covered in a typical quant fin course is hardly implemented in Nigeria's financial services industry. Maybe risk management sha, but that's about it.

Finally, I would not restrict my choice to a course that is lucrative in Nigeria. I would study that which could make me competitive elsewhere. I would study a course that is related to the industry I want to be.

vislabraye:
Info tech. Financial maths is also very cool and it's very good in the financial institutions.
