Students of the Master of Science in Finance (Quantitative Track) program visited financial firms in Chicago, namely Discover Financial Services, Federal Home Loan Bank of Chicago and Markit, on Jan 30th as part of an event organized by the Olin Quantitative Finance Club.

The visits were aimed at providing networking opportunities with company executives and increasing their knowledge about the firms and the quantitative finance careers they offer. Various job functions such as risk management, quantitative research, and financial data analysis were discussed. The event also included a dinner with MSFQ alumni in Chicago.
