About us

Hello World! We are Women in Technology (WIT) at The University of Sydney. The Australian Computer Society’s 2023 Digital Pulse report found that women make up only 29% of the tech workforce in Australia.

WIT has three aims at The University of Sydney: 1. Empowering women by providing opportunities for them to gain valuable experiences. 2. Building networks by connecting members, alumni and industry sponsors. 3. Creating pipelines for students by holding events that foster professional development. Join us at our networking, social and educational events! • Networking events allow students to gain insights from tech professionals. • Social gatherings connect students with peers who share a passion for tech. • Educational workshops are designed to equip students for the tech workforce.

  • Jane Street is excited to host their annual INSIGHT program in Hong Kong this January! They're inviting students who identify as women, transgender, and gender expansive in their second year of university to spend three days in their office learning more about what they do and how they do it through a set of trading and programming classes and activities. Attendees will receive an in-depth look into the ways we use math and computer science every day and insight into the different roles that exist within their firm. Selected students will arrive in Hong Kong on the evening of January 7th and will depart on January 12th 2025. Jane Street will cover all travel to and from Hong Kong, including meals, housing, and a variety of social events. INSIGHT has three different program tracks students can apply for: 💹 Trading — students will learn about mathematical and financial topics such as probability, market structure, and arbitrage through a combination of short lectures, group games, and mock trading sessions. 💻 Software engineering — students will learn OCaml, the libraries and tools we use in our daily work, and how to put them to use by building a computer game. Participants will also learn the fundamentals of electronic trading systems and write a program that trades on a simulated stock exchange. 🤔 Strategy and product — attendees will get a glimpse into the work that goes on in their Strategy and Product Internship and Rotational Development Programme. Case studies and problem-solving exercises will introduce participants to how we optimize funding and financing, set up new trading flows, respond to regulatory inquiries, and generally manage the complex mechanics that underlie Jane Street’s business. 🌟 Apply here to be considered for a spot - https://lnkd.in/gtHu8gSd The deadline to apply for this event is Sunday, 3 November 2024 at 11:59 pm HKT. You will be notified of your application status within two weeks after the deadline.
