IIND-1000 Introduccion a la Ingenieria Industrial

This course is the first actual contact between the student and the Industrial Engineering curriculum, along with all the possibilities that the Department and the University offer. Presents the different areas where Industrial Engineering graduated from Universidad de los Andes can contribute and develop their knowledge in Colombia and in the world. At the end of the course the students should be able to apply some of the tools, topics and contents of Industrial Engineering known and applied in a particular project (project EXPOANDES). Specifically, the course is proposed as an area of counseling and ongoing support for students in first semester to facilitate students' adjustment to their new role at university. Allows students to reinforce their decision about joining the Industrial Engineering program, or otherwise, provides the opportunity for responsible people who do not feel identified with the choice of life as an Industrial engineer to join one of the many programs offered by the Universidad de los Andes or other institutions. Finally it intends to show the university as an institution, interested in the development and training of the students as individuals.

IIND-4406 Gerencia Financiera del Riesgo

The Financial Risk Management course is an advanced finance course that assumes that students have had a minimum exposure to basic micro-economy and macro-economy concepts, particularly in those aspects pertaining to utility functions, risk aversion and financial market balance. On the other hand, concepts on the assumption of basic statistics, finance and mathematics tools knowledge, particular intensive work will be conducted with models and tools that imply a minimum knowledge of concepts, such as random variables, statistical moments of first and second order, linear regression and time series, as well as the basic calculus and lineal algebra concepts. The course approach is clearly quantitative, with respect to what is currently known as "finance in continuous time " however, discrete binomial tree models will also be intensively used. However, the course is not an stochastic calculus course in finance, and neither a derivatives course.
