Upcoming Events  

LIFT: LIFT - our workshop on Investment careers - is now open for the April 26th, 2024 session. Created in partnership with the Yale First-Generation, Low-Income Community Initiative, LIFT is designed to increase talent from underrepresented groups in finance by teaching the basics of investing to Yale students and training the next generation of investment professionals. No prior knowledge is necessary. Students with little to no experience in investing are highly recommended to apply.  Registration is now closed. Confirmation and event details will be sent to participants directly.

Career Coffee Chats: We welcome members of the Yale College Cultural Centers to sign up for our ongoing coffee chat series to learn more about careers in investing. Spots are limited, but we will conduct as many as we can. Sign up here.
