The lecture is principally open for all those interested. But whoever wants to regularly finish it, has to enrol regularly (via Sowi-Computeranmeldung only!).
The actual proceedings of the VU will be subject to the current Covid situation during the whole semester. Hence, follow information in OLAT and check your uibk-e-mails! The regular schedule is to proceed in the lecture hall, but rescheduling to online-teaching will probably be necessary. However, there will NOT be a hybrid format (but instruction videos will be provided anyway). ATTENTION! The first unit at Oct 4 is online only anyway!
Students from programs other than economics, especially from sociology, political science and history, are explicitly welcome due to the interdisciplinary character of the course. In these cases, enrolment for the VU is also necessary online, later enrolment in person will not be possible in this semester.
