Studying AI in Australia: Research, Learning, and the Wild

Julia Schoenthaler

When deciding where to spend my study abroad semester, the University of Melbourne quickly became my first choice. It had long been a dream destination for me because of its strong academic reputation and its focus on research-driven learning. Studying here offers the opportunity to apply methods I have learned during my master’s program in a new academic environment while also gaining exposure to world-class research.

6 Lesson on Fairness, Trust, and Altruism from 20,000+ Student Decisions Around the World
Daniel Apelbaum

Last week, we had the opportunity to visit the European Central Bank (ECB) in Frankfurt. Listening to someone who has seen the evolution of European monetary policy from the inside was both insightful and inspiring. His talk gave us a broader understanding of the ECB’s role, its challenges, and the future of the euro.

Artificial Intelligence and Sustainability – Progress or Problem?
Lucas Mayer-Klenk
Artificial Intelligence is transforming our world faster than ever, not only impacting how we work, but also the way we live. As one of the key drivers of digitalization and automation, AI shapes industries and societies worldwide. Yet, its effects on sustainability topics are often overlooked in the mainstream debate.
What happens when a bank’s biggest borrower is a real estate developer in a floodplain? Financial risk is shaped not only by market forces but by the physical environment. Rising sea levels, once a distant threat, now translate into credit risk, defaults, liquidity pressures, and mounting non-performing loans (NPLs).

The Future of Climate Risk Tools: Transparency, Speed and Accessibility

Holger Siek

Most of us working in finance already know that climate risk isn’t some abstract environmental buzzword anymore. It’s measurable, visible, and increasingly… expensive. Floods, droughts, and heatwaves are reshaping entire sectors. Yet the models used to understand these impacts often sit behind expensive paywalls or inside black boxes that only a handful of data scientists can open.

The MHFA Training: Becoming a Certified Mental Health First Aider

Lea Maria Riebl

Many of us have struggled with their mental health at some point or know someone that did. But often times, we have no idea how to help in these situations. How should I talk to someone who is having a panic attack? Should I approach a friend that seems like exam stress is overwhelming them? And can I call an ambulance when someone is having a mental health emergency? These questions and more are answered during the 12-hour course, that equips you with foundational knowledge about different mental health topics.

15 Years of the e-Campus: From Experiment to a Global Learning Platform
Junes Arfaoui
When I look back at the history of Frankfurt School’s e-Campus, I realise how closely my own professional journey is tied to its development. I was there from the very beginning, helping to shape and grow what has become one of Frankfurt School’s most impactful and international initiatives.
What began as a small team has grown into a passionate group of students spread across nine departments: Human Resources, Marketing, Finance, Spring Run, Easter Donation, Spring Concert, Joblinge, LEO and Volunteering.

Vom Bankfachwirt zum LLM

Aleksandar-Saša Stojanović

Als ich meine Ausbildung zum Bankkaufmann begann, war mir relativ früh klar: Die Abschlussprüfung wird nicht das Ende meiner Reise sein. Persönliche und berufliche Weiterentwicklung haben für mich schon damals eine große Rolle gespielt. Stillstand war nie eine Option. Heute, einige Jahre später, blicke ich auf einen Weg zurück, der mich vom Realschulabschluss bis zum Master of Laws (LLM) an der Frankfurt School of Finance & Management geführt hat.

Maximilian Beck
For a few weeks now, Frankfurt School has been offering its students new seating in the Creative Learning Lounge opposite the Deli. The 18 seating cubes each represent a UN sustainability goal, as well as current progress and urgency.
Enrolling in the  Master of Leadership in Sustainable Finance at the Frankfurt School of Finance & Management has been one of the most valuable experiences of my career. It challenged me academically, inspired me personally, and gave me tools I can apply every day in my professional life.
