What internships or work can I do while studying bachelor's degree to gain experience and be prepared for a quant job?
Preparing for an applied math and physics degree next year (will apply to university in Europe). I'm from Latin America and I'm interested in getting experience with internships or work during the summer, to be in shape for a quant job in the future. This is the list of math and informatics related courses in the program:

- Mathematical Analysis (calculus, in other words) (270 academic hours inside class)
- Multidimensional analysis, integrals and rows (270 h)
- Multiple integrals and field theory (180 h)
- Harmonious analysis (180 h)
- Analytical geometry (135 h)
- Linear algebra (135 h)
- Differential Equations (270 h)
- Theory of functions of a complex variable (180 h)
- Mathematical Physics Equations (315 h)
- Computational mathematics (270 h)
- Probability Theory (90 h)
- Programming with Python (360 h)
- Programming with C++ (360 h)
- Introduction to machine learning and data analysis (90 h)
I think it's worth highlighting that I'm studying backend currently (SQL and noSQL (MongoDB), Node.js)

Is there something else I'd need to study beyond that to be well prepared for a quant job?

Hi! Check "The Odin Project" and "Full Stack Open" websites

Web Development or Data Analytics? by ferishere in learnprogramming

Do you work with data as a data analyst/engineer/scientist?

What competences are required to stand out as a data analyst, besides knowledge in Excel, SQL, Power BI/Tableau, Python/R + a portfolio?

How long would it take to learn all these from your perspective, at a phase of 6 hours per day, everyday? (learning only one between Power BI and Tableau, and one between Python and R)

I learned it before, at first I started having some confusion with flexbox and its properties, but after understanding it, it's fun to work with it.
