Dear Students,

First of all, we would like to sincerely thank you for your interest in the project seminars that we introduced as a new offering in the major Management. It is therefore all the more regrettable that we must inform you that the project seminars from the Chair for Transformation of Work and the Chair for Strategic Management cannot be offered in the winter semester 2026/27. The reason is an exceptional situation: Prof. Dr. Julia Backmann is leaving the university, and Prof. Dr. Verena Rieger is going on maternity leave. We ask for your understanding.

As planned, research seminars will be offered in the winter semester by the Institute for Entrepreneurship, the Institute for Innovation, Strategy and Organization, and the Institute for Organisational Economics. You can find further information at https://www.wiwi.uni-muenster.de/cfm/de/news/114. If you need a seminar place in the winter semester 2026/27, please register there by 3 July 2026.

Anyone who would still like to take a project seminar will have the opportunity to do so again in the summer semester 2027. Two project seminars will then be offered once more: by the Institute for Entrepreneurship and the Institute for Innovation, Strategy and Organization.

Please also note that, due to this exceptional situation, the elective modules "Recent Topics in Strategy" and "Human Resources and Leadership in the Digital Age" will likewise not be offered in the winter semester 26/27.

If you have any questions, we are of course happy to help.

Kind regards,
Julia Backmann and Verena Rieger
