CFEM Alumni Council

We are excited to announce the formation of the CFEM Alumni Council. More than a dozen alumni stepped up to help plan and lead future events that bring together current students and program graduates. The Council’s first event in September, a Round Robin networking session, brought back alumni from 2014 onwards for interactive discussions on systematic macro, high-frequency trading, and portfolio management.

Alumni engagement this semester has been extraordinary – with Council members and volunteers collectively conducting 90+ mock interviews to help students refine their professional skills and prepare for recruiting season.

Thank you to all who continue to give back through mentorship and participation!
