PhD Summit

An invite-only two-day event that brings together the top PhD students and postdocs in the world with researchers across our organization. 

Program Overview

The Citadel and Citadel Securities PhD Summit convenes the top PhD students and post doctorates across Europe with researchers from our firm in London.

During the summit, attendees will have the opportunity to engage one-on-one with current Citadel and Citadel Securities researchers to explore applications of their own research in finance. The event will culminate in a poster session in which we will be awarding a substantial grant to the research lab of the winning poster. The second and third place posters will also receive grants.
