The CMU Quant Club focuses on the study of quantitative finance, a branch of finance that uses advanced mathematical and computational techniques. We host events that help undergraduates learn about and connect with the quantitative finance industry: mock interviews, resume workshops, lecture series, seminars, and our flagship events.
Quant Club does not host general body meetings or regular workshops. Instead, we focus on high-impact, high-quality events. Our flagship events are in the spring, and throughout the year we run industry treks and other events as opportunities arise. We’d love to have you join us!
