Welcome to Cornell University's first quantitative finance organization. Our mission is to foster a community for financial innovation and to explore the bleeding-edge of investing technology.
Our members hone their quantitative knowledge and skills in our rigorous training curriculum. Topics include market microstructure, trading terminology, probability, statistical learning, game theory, options theory, and more.
We host various events in partnership with our sponsors to introduce students to the world of quantitative finance. Since 2022, we've hosted the annual Cornell Trading Competition, inviting 120+ students from across the US to compete for over $10k in prizes, while practicing their quantitative skills.
Our Software Engineers gain valuable hands-on experience building the technological infrastructure for our organization. Past projects include a live exchange, a strategy backtester, original trading games played by hundreds of students at CTC, and more!
Upon successful completion of our training curriculum, members will either become Software Engineers or join one of our three desks.
Thank you to our 2025-26 sponsors. Their support is essential to successfully hosting our annual trading competition and providing our students with the best-in-class educational resources. If your firm is interested in partnering with Cornell Quant Fund, contact us.
