Old friends and new contacts

On Thursday, 5 March 2020, Frankfurt School of Finance & Management celebrated its reunion with the graduates of the Master in Management and Master of Finance programmes at the MiM and MoF Alumni Drinks. The 50 alumni exchanged news from Frankfurt School and their professional lives in the relaxed atmosphere of the FS Lounge.

Angelika Werner, Vice President Strategic Relations, welcomed all guests and summed up the evening: "Tonight, it's not about lectures, but about updating, connecting and meeting new friends and old.“ Afterwards Dr Julia Knobbe, Programme Director Degree Programmes, presented the latest developments of the Master's programmes and Frankfurt School. A special feature of the Master's programmes is the active and lively network cultivated by everyone even after the end of their studies. "Our master community offers an excellent networking experience“, said Dr Knobbe.

This was also why Christian Schwalbach, Master in Management 2019, came to visit: "It‘s great to meet alumni today – not only from my final year, but also alumni from other years  I had contact with during my studies". Henrike-Esther Duda, Master in Management 2018, added: "It is always fun to come to the Frankfurt School – whether for Homecoming or today for the Alumni Drinks. It is exciting to hear how the careers of other alumni have developed". Aurelia Muhle, Master of Finance 2019, joined the event "with no pressure of exams anymore", as she explained with a laugh. She completed her studies in 2019 and spent her Bachelor's and part of her Master's degree at the old campus in Sonnemannstrasse. "It still feels great to come to the new campus on Adickesallee." The highlight of the evening for her and many others was therefore the campus tour including a photo stop on the terrace on the 8th floor with a view of the Frankfurt skyline.
