" The Frankfurt School of | It may sound paradoxical at first, but in fact this is the outcome of one of the most promising changes in the German university landscape. Because in the Frankfurt School of Finance & Management we have created something entirely different: a whole new type of business school.

All courses offered by the Frankfurt School have three aspects in common: high standards, diversity and practice-orientation. High standards, because we expect more of our students. Diversity, because all our courses reflect the rich panoply of perspectives that the field of financial studies has to offer. |
And practice-orientation, because at the Frankfurt School, research and teaching never take place in a vacuum, but must always be related to actual applications.
