Her main areas of work are the social, cultural, political and legal history of the High and Late Middle Ages. Schulte has published numerous studies on “trust” and “loyalty” in an epoch-specific sense as motifs for the practice of rule and politics. Schulte is concerned with the importance of loyalty in ruling practice, "How the concept of loyalty was used in politics in the 12th century, how loyalty was displayed and what significance it was assigned to the functioning of the political order". Further research focuses are the cultural history of wealth in medieval Europe and Christine de Pizan . Wealth has hardly been considered a topic in medieval economic and social history. In 2015, Schulte published an anthology with Peter Hesse, which arose in 2010 from a conference held at the German Study Center in Venice .
