Founded in 2025, the HKU Quantitative Research Society aims to create valuable opportunities for like-minded students who are passionate about quantitative research. The society supports members in pursuing research projects—independently or in assistance to professors—across a range of areas involving quantitative analysis.
Our research scope includes, but is not limited to, quantitative studies of financial markets, natural language processing (NLP), and large language models (LLMs). Through fostering high-impact student-faculty research collaborations, we aspire to contribute to the academic excellence of HKU Business School and reinforce its global reputation as a leading institution in business education and research.
Our Key Initiatives Include:
- Organizing industry events in collaboration with firms engaging in quantitative fields, such as quantitative trading firms, tech companies, etc.
- Assisting professors with research by connecting them with passionate and capable students
- Facilitating networking opportunities between students and industry experts
- Conducting workshops on quantitative techniques and programming tools (e.g., Python, NLP, etc.)
- Launching a mentorship program connecting students with alumni working in quantitative finance
The HKU Quantitative Research Society is committed to building a vibrant, intellectually stimulating community that bridges academic research and industry practice in quantitative fields.
