Praxisprojekt als Finale der Vertiefung Wirtschaftsinformatik – Teil 2 Lessons Learned
Luca Steingen
In einem Team von 22 Studierenden haben wir diese Aufgabe über knapp 1 Jahr hinweg zu der Anwendung „Correctly“ entwickelt. Viele von uns hatten im Praxisprojekt die Chance ihr gesammeltes Wissen aus den letzten 3 Jahren anzuwenden. Das hat uns alle in unserer professionellen Entwicklung vorangebracht.
Das Praxisprojekt ist ein eigenständiger Kurs innerhalb des Bachelor-Programms. Im Rahmen des Praxisprojekts können Soft-Skills erlernt und trainiert werden, die im Rahmen eines klassischen akademischen Kurses kaum in dieser praktischen Form zu vermitteln sind.

Voting for Ausländerbeirat (Foreign Advisory Council)
Shubhra Sasmit
This council represents the foreign residents in Hessen, hence, it makes absolute sense especially for international students to take priority interest in it and vote. Vote on March 14th from 8AM to 6PM at your polling station.
The year 2020 was by no means an extraordinary year to be graduating in. In situations like this one, education and network can make a big difference; this is where Frankfurt School comes in.

From Colombia to Germany: Why I chose the Full-time MBA at FS
Maria Juliana Lopez
After working in a fast-paced multinational environment in Colombia, I reached important goals that generated change and added value to the organizations I worked for. However, I realized that the technical skills, corporate and institutional knowledge, and the business intuition I had, were not enough for the position I would like to have and dreamt of.
The fallacy of dictators is that they never know which repression event will turn out to be the last for them. Alexander Lukasahenko, often referred to as the last dictator in Europe, had thought of 9th August presidential elections as a repeat of the election engineering that he has mastered for the last 26 years.

The Journey of a Macedonian Frankfurt School Alumna
Sanja Mitrovska
For me and my colleagues from the Commerzbank, it was very insightful to get fresh perspectives. The students were amazing and presented astonishing results in such a short time. For alumni, there is no greater pleasure than sharing the skills, experience and lessons we learned with the young professionals being educated at FS.
I selected Frankfurt School within the partners of my university because of its reputation in finance. When I arrived, I didn’t know many people, but many events were organized to make us feel welcome and connect with each other.

How the Healthcare MBA helped me start a business during the Corona Crisis

Sonja Konrad

It sounded like a great opportunity, but we did not want to go into this blindly. First we did a small market research, some tests on potential competitors about their offers and we looked into details on the specific needs in Germany. We thought about the risk especially during this time of crisis, but also about the opportunity which arises out of it until we finally decided to give it a go.

Diversity and inclusiveness as drivers of economic growth
Agim Margilaj
There were many positive developments for LGBTIQ* rights in the last decade, but despite many victories, there were also some setbacks with the increase of the populism and extremist right movements in many countries.
During the 6th semester of the BSc in Business Administration - Banking and Finance, I have founded MAZU – a beverage company producing MAZU HARD SELTZER – together with two fellow students, Björn Thieme and Moritz Groppel. This is the story how it happened.
