Carnegie Mellon University

Valuable Alumni Connections

The MSCF program has one of the largest quantitative finance networks in the industry! You can leverage this 2000+ strong network in landing your first quantitative finance job and, even more importantly, in building valuable connections as you progress in your career.

Alumni play a pivotal role in your education. Often looking to hire out of the program, many MSCF alums maintain a strong relationship with faculty, students and staff – even years after graduating. In addition to recruiting on campus, alums serve as guest lecturers in MSCF courses, conduct mock interviews and serve on “Alumni Panels” to educate our students on all aspects of working in the quantitative finance industry.

Below you can learn about just a few of the MSCF alums who work as financial analysts, security traders, risk managers and data scientists on Wall Street and beyond. Discover how they became interested in quantitative finance, the most rewarding aspects of their careers, and their advice for prospective MSCF students.
