Holding a Bachelor's degree in political science and a Master's degree in international relations, Franziska considers her own stays abroad as the most valuable stations in her personal and academic development. In addition to a one-year voluntary service in Ecuador after graduating from high school, she spent a semester abroad in Algeria and a study year at King's College in London, amongst others. In addition, she has always been passionate about learning languages and experiencing different cultural contexts.

With these experiences, she brings awareness of the relevance of academic stays abroad on both a societal and individual level, as well as a high level of understanding for the associated challenges. As part of FUBiS, Franziska looks forward to promoting international exchange of this kind as part of her professional life.
