Our roots
Igor Tulchinsky
“WorldQuant Learning is fortunate to be founded and backed by Igor Tulchinsky: an investor, entrepreneur, venture capitalist, author and philanthropist.”
After serving over 12 years as a portfolio manager and holding over 20 jobs from scientist to video game programmer, WQU founder Igor Tulchinsky founded WorldQuant, LLC, a quantitative investment firm. Igor knew that the exponential growth of data would ultimately change the way the world invests, learns, and works.
In his search to find and develop talent for the quantitative finance industry, a passion for creating education opportunities worldwide was sparked. Igor believed that people worldwide deserved access to quality education and premier resources to work with experts in the field.
He founded WorldQuant University in 2015, offering the first-ever completely free Master’s degree in Financial Engineering. WorldQuant University is an accredited international not-for-profit dedicated to advancing global education.
The company’s technology currently powers WorldQuant University’s online master’s and certificate programs, which have prepared tens of thousands of students worldwide for careers in quantitative fields. Through WorldQuant Learning’s technology, these capabilities are now available to help educational institutions and employers develop skilled data science and technical talent more effectively.
