Special features regarding teaching

The Frankfurt School's Business Informatics is characterised by an interactive approach in small groups. All courses have a maximum of 60 participants. Lecturers are either professors at the Frankfurt School or established industry experts. The Frankfurt School attaches great importance to the teaching skills of its lecturers and involves students in the course evaluation. All lecturers must regularly provide evidence that their research and/or practical experience in the subject area is up to date.

Special features regarding the international orientation

As an integral part of the course, all Bachelor of Science students must complete at least one semester abroad. Students of the Bachelor of Arts and the Pre-Experience Master's degree programmes can choose to study abroad. The Frankfurt School welcomes a growing number of international guest students and guest lecturers every year. Designated study programmes are taught entirely in English.
