Students are encouraged to explore internship opportunities in financial organizations to further improve their understanding of the work of quants in financial markets. Students apply for these opportunities directly; help with doing this is provided in the first year Proseminar.
Some examples of organizations at which our students have been summer interns in the past are listed below.
- Southern Company, Atlanta
- Bloomberg, NY
- CitiMortgage, St Louis
- Yahoo!, Sunnyvale
- Bank of America, NY
- Bell Trading, Chicago
- Federal Home Loan Bank, Atlanta
- Florida State Board of Administration
Some international interships are pursued by FSU students -- see the International Programs website, international.fsu.edu.
It is possible to obtain 1 hour credit for an internship, by registering for MAT 5945 (Graduate Professional Internship), with the Director's approval. See the Mathematics Advisor for the necessary paperwork before you start the internship.
