Harvey Huang completed the Doctoral Program in Decision, Risk and Financial Sciences in 2023. He began his journey at the University of Melbourne with the Bachelor of Commerce, followed by an Honours year specialising in Finance.
In this profile, he discusses the multidisciplinary nature of the program and how the Centre for Brain, Mind and Markets has supported him to develop his research through skills development workshops and overseas conference opportunities.
