MCFAM Seminar - QUANTITATIVE FINANCE: What is it and is this the right career for me?

Speaker: Gary Hatfield

Abstract: Quantitative Finance is a dynamic and highly interdisciplinary field that offers a variety of highly rewarding career opportunities. If you are majoring in Mathematics, Statistics, Actuarial Science, Computer Science, Economics, Finance, or another STEM field, you are likely a good candidate for this career. This seminar will provide valuable insights into the profession, discussing the roles of quantitative analysts ("quants") and exploring potential pathways to enter this exciting field.

Join us to learn about this fulfilling career and for an in-depth discussion on one particular pathway - pursuing a Masters in Financial Mathematics (MFM) at the University of Minnesota. The seminar will also feature two early-career financial quants who will be joining to add their perspectives and share their experiences.
