I just switched to information science (similar to computer science) at a non target and I was wondering what type of jobs in finance are more geared towards someone who are studying in a Tech major? if anyone could give me a list of sample job titles or internships that would be amazing.

My school doesn’t offer info science but comp sci majors from my school have gone on to do ib, risk, quant dev, quant research, quant trading, s&t, etc. You’re pretty much open to everything, but quant roles are definitely more geared towards stem majors
thank you for responding, I was wondering what you meant by risk? is it risk management at a insurance firm or is it something different? I thought that the quant roles usually need a PhD in the field, do you know any entry level job titles for stem majors?
Yes I meant risk management but you get these roles at banks too and some hedgefunds. There are quite a few entry level quant roles out there at prop trading firms. Although a lot will require phds, a lot of places have entry level roles such as quant trading, dev and research eg. Jane street, akuna cap, sig, aqr, gsa cap, group1, etc.
oh my bad what I meant by entry level I meant a position you can get with a bachelors degree,
You do get entry level quant trading/dev/research roles at some places
oh ok, can you enter sales and trading as entry level?
Yes a lot of people do s&t after graduating
