About

Who we are.

MQR is a student association at Maastricht University for people interested in quantitative research, development, and finance. We were founded in 2026 by students who wanted a place to do this work seriously, together.

What we're for

What we're for

Learn together

Most of what's useful here isn't taught in a lecture hall. We build the sessions, workshops, and mentorship that fill the gap.

Build things that run

Ideas are cheap. We care about work that survives contact with data — backtested honestly, documented, and reviewed by peers.

Open the door to industry

We bring firms to campus and take members to their offices, so the path from student to practitioner is something you can actually see.
