In the words of our alumni

Yujing Liang
Master in Finance 2021
"I wanted a first-class program, a dedicated career center and the opportunity to do an internship in the respective country. The WHU Master in Finance program met all these requirements and so much more."
Jaiditya Kakkar
Master in Finance 2023
"In joining the MiF cohort at WHU, my primary focus was to build a career in Corporate Finance, but my experience here was significantly enriched by the professors, who ensured that the curriculum mimicked real world business challenges, my peers, who perpetually motivated me to outdo myself, and the In Praxi alumni network, which helped me secure a job at the end of the program. The Career Centre, too, played an instrumental role in providing me with a bespoke development plan and the essential tools that helped me make the most of my WHU journey. At WHU, all these elements came together and created an exhilarating and steep learning curve, which fostered remarkable personal growth and skill refinement."
