Winter term 2026/27 - Research sabbatical Prof. Dr. Michael Grimm

Prof. Dr. Michael Grimm is on a research sabbatical during the winter term 2026/27.

The following teaching program will be offered:

  • Lecture Mikroökonomik
    (Christina Petrik)
  • Lecture Growth, Inequality and Poverty
    (Prof. Dr. Johannes Jütting, blocked, schedule in StudIP)
  • Lecture Methods and Theories of Development Research

  • Research Seminar Master Development Studies

  • Lecture Introduction to Quantitative Research Methods for Development Studies
    (Christina Petrik)

The course “Micro Development Economics” will not be offered again until the 2027–28 winter semester! If there is sufficient demand, we will offer a retake exam for “Micro Development Economics” in the 2026–27 winter semester.

****************************************************************************************MA IEB

In the 2026/27 winter semester, the course “Growth, Inequality, and Poverty” may, as an exception, be counted toward either Module Group A or Module Group D, but not both.

In Module Group A, the course may only be credited if the course “Micro Development Economics” has not yet been credited.

****************************************************************************************

Supervision of bachelor’s, master’s, and doctoral theses will continue during the 2026/27 winter semester (please schedule Zoom appointments via email).

Certificate of Attendance

The chair does not issue certificates of attendance. 

Early correction of exams

For important reasons, the early correction of an exam is possible. However, it is only possible to certify whether or not you have clearly passed the exam. If we do not come to a clear result in the early correction, the certificate cannot be issued.

The exact grade can only be communicated after the second correction has been completed.

Please submit this request informally by e-mail (DevEcon@uni-passau.de) immediately after writing the exam, stating

the matriculation number,
the reason and
the seat number.

Without this information an early correction is not possible!
