Graduation year: 2023
Current Status: Technology Associate at Morgan Stanley

My major is Financial Technology, which is under the department of SEEM. The programme covered a broad variety of topics, from financial mathematics to information systems. It offered me ample exposure in both finance and technology, as well as the combination of these two subjects, that is, applying the latest technology in the financial world. The training in this programme has also strengthened my analytic skills and attention to details. These knowledge and skills helped me secure a job in one of the top-tier investment banks in the world, Morgan Stanley. My current role is a technology associate under the Institutional Securities Technology Department, where I am responsible for developing and optimizing the Fixed Income Risk Calculation System in the firm.

If I had a second chance, I would still choose this programme to study in my university life. It has taught me a lot and paved my professional career path.
