CS to Quant Finance 

This video is really for me as a grad cs major with math bachelor exploring quant path.

The conference was fantastic! Thank you, Dimitri and all the Agora folks, and all the presenters. Absolutely solid information from all!

Hi Dimitri, thank you for all the information you provide on your channel. I am almost done with my masters in physics with a minor in financial mathematics and want to work in quantitative risk management. At my university's career fair (in Germany) I talked to a lot of companies and there seem to be two main types for my desired role, banks and consulting firms. If you've already talked about it, I couldn't find it, but I'd really like to hear what you think about the quantitative risk-oriented segments of consulting firms.

I don't know if this is a university specific thing, but from the university I got my Masters in Computer Science, we did have specific courses on most of the topics you mention from a very mathematical point of view (so no rainbows and sunshine in explaining the topics, just straight formulas and theoretical concepts). CS majors might be more suited for the quant research job than we think? Get your degree from a good university and don't avoid mathematical courses since they will provide you with invaluable abstract reasoning skills (biggest mistake made by most CS students imo). Often you have the ability to fill your bachelors and/or masters with courses from the Mathematics department, take them! Don't limit your courses to ML, software & systems engineering.

Nice Video. Can you please point me to any of your favorite resources that talk about missing value and how to handle that in finance.

Very good video. This makes me wonder about career transitioning for quants. How hard (or easy) would it be for someone to transition from Data Science, Software Development, Business Intelligence, etc. to Quant Finance, assuming they have a quantitative Master's degree?

I'm going to be graduating as a CS major and Stats minor in a year. There isn't much of a bridge at all into financial engineering topics at my school but I'll be doing Time-series amongst other statistical topics... any additional advice would be great (Don't think I'll do a master's given my age atm - Western Canada)

Could you do house tour bro, you’re house looks great.

That f(Q) on channel logo means "function of quant".If I am right, that logo tells us lot about what you are, besides I find your video very informational and to the point. Thanks 🙏

Hi, I am doing Data Science and AI So How should i integrate My DSAI to Quant Finance

That’s me ! Currently doing a Master in CS and wanting to transition to quant finance.

Are you able to make a video on how to prepare for quant roles? I’m a cs undergrad and plan on doing mqf next year. I would love to hear any insights!

Ok but what about Economist to Quants,? Are there possible paths?

Hi Dmitri, I'm doing a mathematics and economics degree starting August, what courses should I take and how can I get this towards doing a quant masters. Is this a possible way to quant masters, if so how good it bad? Could you please do a video or short on it!! Would appreciate it a lot

I am 24 years old, I have a master's degree in accounting and finance but I want to break into the field of quantitative finance, I do not live in the USA but I want to come to the USA to work in this field, how can I achieve my dream?

Can you make a video on navinder sarao? i did research online but couldn’t understand how flash crash trade took place? this is an interesting topic, one thing i don’t understand is why was this guy jailed? i mean big companies like jane street, commit such things regularly ig, but they are never jailed but this lone guy from bedroom was jailed? it sounds like these big firms don’t like people making money more than them

🤩🤩🤩🤩

If you had $10 million. Would you 1. Just stick it all in index funds and live of portfolio at 4%. 2. Continue quant finance and just trade the money with your models 3. Set up new business..what?

I want to see data science to quant. I come from an engineering background and im doing a data science masters but I did not know how much more in depth and rigorous computational finance is. I wish I had went that route instead of a data science masters

Hey ,first

Isn't quant dev being automated as LLMs advance?

💎 Trading is a global 🌎 poker & chess mathematical game that is executed thru a long/short auction system (order flow thru bid/ask). Dynamic profession. 💎

this sounds pretty much in line with what a data scientist could do?

Your audio input is little bit fast than video

Please turn to Jesus and repent if you haven't. Jesus's love is like no other and he will transform your life. God bless you ✨️✝️✨️
