Work & Study at FS | 3-Day Model

As well as providing our students with excellent theoretical knowledge from renowned lecturers, Frankfurt School ensures students can get ahead in their career before they even graduate. We provide the 3-Day Study Model so students can combine part-time work with full-time study. In addition, our annual career fair gives students the opportunity to build an essential network for their career while guest lectures and company visits allow students to expand their network and experience the everyday realities of the workplace.

3-Day Study Model

Our 3-Day Study Model allows the pre-experience master students to work part-time whilst studying full-time. The students have classes on two days during the week and Saturdays. You can gain up to two years of work experience and enhance your CV before graduation. Our students share their experience:

Tim Ollig │ Master of Finance

"The 3-day model has been instrumental in shaping my academic and professional journey. Not only has it afforded me the flexibility to finance my daily expenses, but it has also paved the way for enriching, hands-on experiences that complement my studies. By embracing this unique model, I was able to secure a working student position at M&A Boutique Taurus Advisory. The synergy between my coursework and real-world application enriched my skill set, a fact that was further accentuated during my subsequent internship at PwC M&A."

Sarah König │ Master in Management

"The 3-day model at Frankfurt School offers a balanced approach with 3 days of classes and 3 days of work, making your week super organized. During my time at FS, having three days of classes in a row was a bit rare. Yet, I efficiently used these days for studying and assignments. These days are also valuable for group projects, aligning everyone's availability. Thanks to the 3-day model, I'm balancing academics, campus life, and gearing up for my career all at once."

Sophie Merl | Master in Applied Data Science

"The 3-day model is a unique advantage of the Frankfurt School Master programmes that stands out for me. Not only does it allow you to earn something while studying, but you can immediately apply what you just learned in class. In doing so, you deepen your knowledge and work on a practical application. My working student position was an ideal opportunity for me to test whether I would like to go into strategy consulting full-time after graduation. In my experience, employers appreciate the additional work experience, and it helps you stand out from the competition."

Career Fair
