Description/content

The programme is aimed at dedicated graduates holding a Bachelor's degree and young professionals who wish to start or advance their career in finance. Whether your background is in business administration, engineering, or another discipline, the Master of Finance provides you with the knowledge, analytical skills, and mindset needed to succeed in the world of finance.

The Master of Finance programme offers two starting tracks to match your academic background. The Business Track is ideal for students with prior finance knowledge, while the Finance Immersion Track supports those new to the field with an introduction to finance and business fundamentals. From the second semester onwards, all students follow the same curriculum and choose one of three specialised concentrations: Central Banking & Financial Regulation, Capital Markets & Risk Management, and Corporate Finance.

Possibility of finding part-time employment

The Master of Finance follows a unique time model that permits students to work part-time while pursuing a full-time Master's degree. We call this the three-day model. Students typically attend classes three days a week, on two weekdays and on Saturdays. This leaves three working days for self-study, language courses, or part-time employment. Some lectures, exams or excursions are organised as block week events.

Career advisory services and programmes for future professionals

Our dedicated career experts offer personalised counselling and skills development programmes to prepare our students for impactful leadership roles — in Germany and beyond.

Through exclusive events like the Frankfurt School Career Days, we create inspiring opportunities where outstanding talent meets exceptional employers.
