Why I chose the Master in Applied Data Science
Zakariya Abu-Grin
I have always been interested in computers, but I ended up studying petroleum engineering. A main reason for this is that the oil industry was one of few options in my country Libya with international exposure. My dream has always been to have a fast-growing career, work with different people and travel to different countries.

How to master the MBA work-life-study balance

Julius Olemotz

Before I started my MBA at Frankfurt School, I asked myself: “Do I want to do the MBA part-time or full-time?” Of course, both programs have their advantages and the main differences are the duration and the additional workload in addition to a full-time job. I thought: “If I choose the part-time MBA, the biggest challenge would be the work-life-study balance” - and I was right.

Out of the box – how I am finding my “why” in life

Alexander Bergmann

What is my role in this life and who am I? Or maybe rather - who do I want to be? Let's be honest. That sounds quite philosophical. And not everyone might be able to give a concrete answer. You don't have to. Or do you? Let me take you on my journey and give you insights into how I constantly discover and develop my personal “why” to things in life, and why I believe it is important.

Working Student Diary: Sopra Steria Consulting
Ananya Neogi
Data Science – the most talked about field of the 22nd Century is a craft which not only requires adequate academic knowledge and exposure but also needs equal contribution from hands-on experience to achieve excellence. Hence, began my journey as a working student at Sopra Steria Consulting along with the Master in Applied Data Science program at Frankfurt School.
At least once a year I usually go to a place I have never been before in order to experience and learn something new. This summer I decided to go on a digital journey and head back to my Alma Mater, Frankfurt School, for the Lifelong-Learning Module Applied Digital Transformation.

Combining full-time work and a part-time MBA

Marcella Taylor

Almost two years ago, when I moved from Sao Paulo to Frankfurt to take over a position at the headquarters of the company that I’ve being working for the last 8 years, I thought that my new responsibilities at work, finding a flat, adjusting to a new life, getting used to the cold weather and learning the German language would be challenging enough to keep me busy for a little while.
