Becoming a quant trader

[BuffInvestmentBanker]

Aight so I wanna work towards becoming a quant cuz Ive got mad interest in this field. I also have landed myself an internship as a data analyst for KPMG for the summer and have outstanding interviews for Akuna capital and Lazard (investment banking not a quant tho) so I would like to build my undergrad in a way that ill be able to work as a quant straight outta uni. Id be great if yall gimme advice on my current course plan and recommend any useful subjects.

(just for context I spent a yr doing BBankfi at monash cuz I got my first yr completely paid and then decided I wanted to study at unimelb so Ive got some credit transfer)

Yr1 (monash BBankfi)
sem 1:
Technique for modelling (adv)~ calc 2
Python programming ~ intro to computing
bus stats ~ QM1
Intro Micro ~ Intro Micro

Sem 2:
Mutlivariate calc (adv) ~ vector calc
intro to econometrics  ~ econometrics 1
foundations of Finance ~ gen credit lvl 1
Intro macro ~ Intro macro

Yr2 (unimelb bcom)
sem 1:
OB
ARA
PoF
AM1

sem 2:
CDFM
diff equations
econometrics 2
fintech

Year 3 (unimelb)
sem 1:
Investments
Eng comp
computational business and economics
Intro financial math

sem 2:
Algo trading
time series and forecasting analysis
DS
Microeconometeric modelling

year 4 (HNS)
sem 1:
research techinques in fi
adv corp fi
adv investments
numerical techinques in fi

sem 2:
research essay in fi (counts as two subjects)
Financial econometrics
ADS

- Would I need more math, more computing, more finance for such position??
Plus would a masters in quant fi at UTS srsly help? Cuz itll cost me a yr of experience and income plus $36k plus relocation fees so Id honestly rather just gun HNS at unimelb at this point. (plus I had a 88 wam at monash so im aiming for this scholy: https://scholarships.unimelb.edu.au/awards/flagstaff-partners-scholarship)

In all honesty, you don't need any more degrees. Quant trading takes students from all discplines and thus barely look at your actual degree. To get an interview you ideally want a very strong WAM (which you seem to have), strong work experience and/or track record of strong performance in maths-related fields (e.g. Maths competitions, research in Mathematics, etc).

Your subjects are also quite irrelevant - HR usually does not have the time to take a look at your specific subjects. If you've netted an interview at Akuna you are in a great spot - focus on executing/converting the internship and then you've already got yourself that grad role out of uni.

All the best!
