Alumni

Frankfurt School professors, alumni and other experts share their experience and knowledge in Online Events and virtual Expert Talks. Thus, we enable all alumni who cannot visit us on campus, to connect with our community online and stay in touch.

Once a year is your opportunity to (re)discover Frankfurt School, meet up with old friends, make new ones, and explore the latest developments! All alumni are invitied to our annual Alumni Homecoming.

FS Alumni & Friends events take place in major cities in Germany (such as Hamburg, Berlin, Munich and Frankfurt) and around the world (typical examples include New York, London, Zurich, Singapore and Shanghai). They include guest presentations as well as more informal gatherings such as after-work sessions, guided tours, cultural activities and BBQs.

At the annual MBA Reunion in spring, graduates of our MBA classes get together for a weekend of networking an learning. In addition to lectures and workshops on professional and personal development, there is plenty of time for alumni and faculty staff to catch up personally.

Our FS Women's Society events focus on career issues of special relevance to women, acting as a community-building debating platform for the women who take part. The events are exclusively designed for Frankfurt School women students and graduates.

A digital network for the exclusive use of our graduates, so they can easily make relevant, personal contact with other FS alumni by specifying degree courses, companies, places of residence and so on. And with one click of a mouse, alumni can also keep their Directory profiles synchronised with their Xing and LinkedIn profiles.

 

Our alumni network offers professional exchange but it is also about commitment to each other and mutual support. It is meant as a life-long companionship. We hope this newsletter initiates communication and exchange among individuals.

As a member of the social media groups we’ve set up exclusively for alumni, and as part of our FS community, we send you regular updates via Xing and LinkedIn.

We take a close interest in the careers and professional development of our alumni. Indeed, your feedback provides us with vital feedback on our graduates’ satisfaction with the courses we offer at FS, as well as ideas for boosting the business school’s profile and improving our Career Services offering. And our graduates’ professional success also, of course, provides proof positive of the quality of our educational programmes!

Starting in 2017, Frankfurt School is offering alumni a brand-new service: an alumni e-mail address for life! Alumni e-mail addresses are always composed in the same way firstname.surname@alumni-fs.de, and allow our graduates to get in touch with each other easily, regardless of where they are in the world or how often they have changed their jobs, places of residence or personal e-mail addresses.
