Aim: The Jane Street Graduate Research Fellowship (GRF) supports exceptional doctoral students currently pursuing a PhD in computer science, mathematics, physics, or statistics.
Jane Street takes a rigorous, quantitative approach to trading on global markets, combining techniques from machine learning, distributed systems, programmable hardware, statistics, and applied mathematics. The Fellowship would also support research in all areas of these fields, not only those parts which are related to trading. With the Graduate Research Fellowship, Jane Street is excited to support PhD students who share their values: technical excellence, intellectual curiosity, and humility.
The fellowship will cover:
