C)attended the Swiss Federal Polytechnic School in Zurich, received in-depth training in quantitative analysis, and he developed
D)attended the Swiss Federal Polytechnic School in Zurich, received in-depth training in quantitative analysis, developing --> need 'and' after the first comma to make the sentence complete.
E)attending the Swiss Federal Polytechnic School in Zurich, receiving in-depth training in quantitative analysis, and developing --> there is no main verb.

Also give your comments on the following additional option:

F)attended the Swiss Federal Polytechnic School in Zurich, receiving in-depth training in quantitative analysis, and developed (Correct, but with a different meaning)
Cheers!
