Information Technology

Information technology is a critical component of the financial services industry. Technologists work side-by-side with business teams to support and enhance business capabilities. Most recently, technologists have been utilizing cutting edge software solutions to develop web-based delivery systems, trading analytics, risk management analytics, trade processing architecture and customer management platforms. Broader developments include network engineering, e-commerce initiatives and database design.

A career in information technology within the financial services industry provides rich experiences in both finance and investment technology. Some of the technologies necessary for a career in IT include Java, C, C++, UNIX, Microsoft, Perl, XML, HTML, Visual Basic, VBScript and N-tier architecture. A technologist's responsibilities may span all phases of the project lifecycle. In addition to being IT savvy and having an interest in Wall Street, success in this program area requires strong analytical, communication and problem-solving skills.
