ROWE PRICE,<\/strong> the global investment management firm headquartered in Baltimore, went looking for qualified college seniors for its highly competitive two-year Investment Fellowship Program, it did not have to go far. The firm came to the Whiting School of Engineering.<\/p>\n<p>This June, Eric Chu \u201906 and Prashant Jey \u201906, both of whom majored in Biomedical Engineering, begin their careers at T. Rowe Price as two of the four Fellows hired nationally to take part in this prestigious program.<\/p>\n<p>T. Rowe Price recruiters recognize that engineers excel at analyzing complex issues and developing innovative solutions to problems, and the firm appreciates that these abilities are honed in the Whiting School\u2019s classrooms and labs.<\/p>\n<p>Although Chu and Jey may have spent much of the past four years studying topics such as the \u201creactive oxygen species\u2019 effect on myocardial cells\u201d and the \u201cmicrofluidic system for assembly and culture of multi-cellular tumor spheroids,\u201d they also were gaining the kinds of skills that are both applicable and highly desirable across a broad range of disciplines. Working in the firm\u2019s \u201cinvestment front office\u201d areas on a rotation schedule, the two recent graduates are gaining professional experience in areas including portfolio analysis, trading, risk management, asset allocation, and financial modeling.<\/p>\n<blockquote><p><strong>\u201cModeling DNA formations of proteins and modeling financial markets and bonds are actually not that different.\u201d<\/strong><cite>Eric Chu \u201906<\/cite><\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>Chu explains that ever since he was in high school, he knew he wanted to work in business and finance. When he heard about the fellowship program with T. Rowe Price, he applied immediately. \u201cThere are clear connections between the work I\u2019ve done as a Biomedical Engineering student and the work I\u2019ll be doing in my new job,\u201d he states. \u201cI think Engineering students here have a really strong work ethic and are able to juggle many demands. Also, like financial analysts, engineers do a lot of work with modeling and numeric computations. Modeling DNA formations of proteins and modeling financial markets and bonds are actually not that different.\u201d Chu hopes that during his fellowship, he can take part in rotations that involve biotechnology and medical instrumentation and put to use his considerable knowledge in these fields.<\/p>\n<p>Jey, too, recognizes that the skills he learned as an Engineering student will serve him well in his new job. \u201cIn fact,\u201d he says, \u201cI was kind of stunned by how similar the types of problems they showed me during my interview were to the work I\u2019ve done in class. I have strong analytical skills and a good understanding of modeling.\u201d Like Chu, he believes that his specific knowledge of biomedical issues\u2014 from its basic concepts to a familiarity with its language\u2014will enable him to better evaluate biomedical companies.<\/p>\n<p>In April, representatives from T. Rowe Price returned to campus to participate in a networking program that included a dinner and the chance to speak with students about fellowships and internships. Sholeh Dadressan, the firm\u2019s corporate recruiter who met with the students, observes, \u201cWe were very impressed by the caliber of the Johns Hopkins students, are excited to welcome the two JHU Fellows, and look forward to building a long and successful partnership with the school.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>WHEN T.
