From Frankfurt School via BCG to my own business

Klaus Henneberg

While pursuing my second bachelor’s degree in philosophy parallel to my Masters, I learned to cope with very different topics simultaneously. Looking back, this is a big plus for my new career path, where I am continuously dealing with interesting and totally new topics every day.

How my start-up idea won the Solve for Tomorrow Challenge
Katharina Porenta
Before this challenge, I had never actually considered starting my own business. I am, however, very excited and grateful to have been given the opportunity to go through this process and also to apply a lot of the skills we have acquired at FS so far.
Frankfurt is an international city, and people are often fluent in English, so no one should expect communication issues while staying in Frankfurt.  The city has a well-developed infrastructure, and the city is easily accessible via public transport.

My first impressions of Frankfurt School
Marius Heinrich
I guess everybody can agree that starting a new chapter in your life is always, at least a bit, scary. For me, this new chapter involved moving from a place near Bielefeld, the city that does not exist, to Frankfurt to start my Master of Finance journey at Frankfurt School.
I was on top of the world when I opened my e-mail and saw the words, “You are awarded with the full sponsorship for Armenian Students”. It’s a great honour to become a scholar at FS. It comes with a sense of self-reliance and a feeling of giving back to the community.

Being part of a community starting from day one

Ruben Louis Thiemann

The more research I did, the more I realized what exactly makes FS stand out. Yes, it has excellent career services, an expansive professional network, and high post-graduation salaries. However, what drew me to FS the most was its diverse and supportive environment.

Starting a Master's during COVID: What can you expect?

Paul Leibrock

My first semester at Frankfurt School was a great experience, both from an academic point of view and in terms of organization. As a student I feel exceptionally well supported and I am looking forward to three more exciting semesters.

Starting a new chapter of my life at FS

Everyone here has a distinctive background and is open, friendly, and motivated, which makes this community unique. Outdoor Campus was a great opportunity to develop our teamwork skills as well as get to know our international, enthusiastic, and ambitious classmates better.
One magical morning in February, we received an email informing us that there would be an optional study trip in June for MSc students in Management, Finance and Applied Data Science to Nova School of Business and Economics in Carcavelos, Portugal.

How Frankfurt School shaped my professional career
Al-Muthanna Khudhur
You might be wondering if Frankfurt School is the place for you or if it will impact your future or your professional career in a certain way. Well, let me tell you about my experience and how Frankfurt School shaped my path in ways I could not envisage.
Frankfurt has provided me with many opportunities to connect with leading banks and get insights into the industry. When it comes to networking, a critical element of the experience, Frankfurt School has an excellent relationship with the corporate world and organises workshops with well-known institutions on a regular basis.

Semester Opening & Executive Talk at ECB

Nicole Sarmiento

After a nice and long winter break, the semester opening ceremony on Monday, 3 February 2020 at the European Central Bank (ECB) was the best way to be welcomed back to Frankfurt. During the evening at the beautiful building on Sonnemannstraße we had a very interesting talk from Gabriel Glöckler, Principal Adviser of the ECB’s Directorate General Communications.

My reasons for applying to the WAM Graduate Program at Berenberg
Isabell Anna Silverio
Every year in November, Frankfurt School Career Services organizes the Frankfurt School Career Day, exclusively for FS students and alumni. This is where I got my first impression of Berenberg. The unique Wealth & Asset Management (WAM) program immediately caught my attention, which I applied that day.
One of the main reasons why I joined the Berenberg Portfolio Management Equities team within Berenberg WAM full-time after my Master of Finance studies at Frankfurt School was the phenomenal interpersonal skills I have encountered with my interviewers and the team members I had the pleasure to meet.
