From engineer to asset manager: my career change and the value of mentoring

Leonie Tauscher

Even though I enjoyed the technical job, my goal was always to work in asset management. I was always attracted by the fact that you can work both technically and commercially - perfect if you have completed a technical degree and a second bachelor's degree in business administration and are interested in both areas.

Opportunity for social advancement: studying part-time
Florian P. Meyer
The social function of this study pathway is too often overlooked: Dual higher education is a catalyst that promotes the permeability of social strata and thus makes an important contribution to equal social opportunities.
Working in Sustainability required being much more comfortable with ambiguity, than I was used to in the Tech world. The evolving European Sustainability legislative and regulatory landscape required crafting quite flexible strategies and plans to keep up with the unknowns.

Navigating New Horizons after the MSc Finance at Frankfurt School
Xinyao Li
The Master of Finance (MoF) programme has not only helped me build a foundation and fill the knowledge gap in financial studies, but it has also exposed me to different career possibilities and paths within the industry.
As an alumna of the Master in Data Analytics & Management programme, I have witnessed a unique blend of diversity and commonality within our community. This diversity does more than just enrich our academic experience; it provides a prism through which we can view and understand the multifaceted nature of career development.

How these 5 lessons have changed my life

Francesco Pisani

I cannot imagine how tough it could be for students nowadays to decide which career path to take. The scarcity of skilled people is increased by the digitalization of work, and hyperconnectivity makes almost everything at their reach.

Grow personally and professionally by pursuing an MBA: Advantages & reflections

Michael Knowlton

Studying the Part-time MBA programme at FS was an action-packed experience offering a breadth of current business knowledge and real-world applications. It’s an incredible time to build your professional self and connect with those you can support and, of course, who can also support you. Identify what you want to accomplish, take courses, make friends, connect with business partners and execute through the master thesis.

Master alum success story: Daimler Truck IT transformation case study
Niklas Kuchinke
As a Master in Management alum, it was quite nostalgic to be back, listening to the lecture in which I would present. This time, not as a student but as a company representative for Daimler Truck to enhance the practical learning experience within the programme. It was a fun experience not only to present but also to answer many questions asked by the students.
The Alumni get-together of MiM students was a great opportunity to reunite and network with other alumni not just from my intake year (2019) but also from the older (2017 & 2018) intakes. Frankfurt School planned an amazing agenda filled with academic talks, panel discussions, a monastery tour and wine tasting at a picturesque location at Kloster Eberbach in Rheingau.

Austausch mit FS Absolvierenden – so hat mich das Mentoring-Programm bereichert
Dominik Schulz
Regelmäßiger Austausch auf Augenhöhe mit einem oder einer FS Absolvierenden, bei dem alle Fragen erlaubt sind und wertvolle Tipps rund um das Studium sowie die weitere Entwicklung gegeben werden. Genau diese Option erhalten Studierende im Rahmen des Bachelor of Arts, Bachelor of Science und dem Management-Studium.
Nach dem Studium eine Karriere im M&A: Viel Arbeit, dafür aber ein großes Netzwerk und hohe Gehälter. So der Traum vieler Studenten, die kurz vor dem Abschluss stehen. Auch meine Vorstellungen gingen in eine ähnliche Richtung. Doch wie sieht es nun, nach zwei Jahren Berufserfahrung, in der Realität aus?

Breaking free from Wall Street: My personal journey into Value Investing

Andy Hamer

Successful investing requires independent thinking, which is way easier said than done. It requires enduring rejection, negative comments and stomaching people’s disagreement over extended periods of time because thinking differently from everyone else is essential.

The most important skill to stay relevant in a changing banking landscape

Oliver Bader

Even though we have already established that change is the new norm and is here to stay, we also find that a large portion of projects are badly managed. In addition, a large portion of managers and executives spend a considerable amount of their time on project-related matters, even though some of them lack a fundamental understanding of how projects should be managed.
