The Department of Mathematics
Dan Stefanica is an applied mathematician specializing in numerical methods for financial applications. He studied methods for fitting smooth yield curves to market data and wrote the book A Primer for the Mathematics of Financial Engineering, based on material taught in the Advanced Calculus refresher course to incoming students of the Baruch MFE Program. In other NSF-funded research with application in finance, he designed fast algorithms for the numerical solution of PDEs, and worked on geophysical fluid dynamic problems. He has a PhD in mathematics from the Courant Institute.
