A bridge between university and work life

We’re UIO Quant Society, a student-run community for anyone curious about quantitative finance, algorithmic trading, and data-driven investing.

About us

UIO Quant Society brings together students who enjoy math, computer science, economics, and statistics. We build skills used in finance: data analysis, modelling, optimisation, and risk management. Just as important, we keep the vibe friendly and low-pressure so it’s easy to learn and share.

Our motto is “a bridge between campus and work life.” You’ll get practice building and testing strategies, working in teams, and presenting results.
