Study

Dear Students,

I would like to inform you that I have a research sabbatical this summer term 2021. Therefore, I won’t have any teaching but will instead focus on my ongoing research projects, new research grant applications and the launch of PICAIS, the Passau International Centre for Advanced Interdisciplinary Studies, which I will jointly lead with Professor Daniela Wawra from the Faculty of Humanities.

Nevertheless, we will ensure that you won’t have any disadvantages but can benefit from all the courses we usually offer during the summer term.

• The Bachelor course “Growth and Development” will be taught by Prof. Dr. Johannes Jütting from the OECD/Paris 21 (synchronous, via Zoom). A tutorial (Übung) will be offered by Nathalie Luck. Exam as usual.
• As every year, we offer in the summer term several Übungen and Tutorials for the Bachelor course “Microeconomics”. An exam will be scheduled by the Examination Office for July/August 2021.
• For the Master Course “Evaluation of Development Policies” we provide the videos (lectures and tutorials) of the summer term 2020. Marina Dodlova and Nathalie Luck offer weekly Q&A sessions (synchronous, via Zoom). I will offer a Q&A from time to time (follow StudIP announcements). Assignment as usual (about start of July).
• For the Master Course “Health, Development and Public Policy” we also provide the videos of the summer term 2020 and Manuela Fritz offers a tutorial (synchronous, Zoom). I will offer a Q&A towards the end of the term. Exam as usual.
• Prof. Dr. Jörg Peters offers a Bachelor seminar “Ein ökonomischer Blick auf die Klimapolitik”.
• Dr. Marina Dodlova offers a Master seminar “Political Economy of Development Policies”.

You can find detailed information on each course on StudIP.

The supervision of BA, MA and PhD theses will continue without any interruption as well as all other activities at the chair. I will also hold my office hours as usual (through Zoom/Skype, appointment by e-mail).

Stay healthy and my best wishes for this new term

Michael Grimm

The chair does not issue certificates of attendance. 

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!
