Since I felt my knowledge acquired in the bachelor's programme was somewhat lonesome "up there" in my head I was looking for a partner that would complement it perfectly. The master's programme in Banking and Finance proved to be the right match.

The practice-oriented approach of the top-quality lecturers and the strong links the FH has to the business world are definitely responsible for the top education offered and its good reputation in the finance industry.
