Organisational points
Books, journals, etc. may only be ordered online and borrowed on presentation of the CampusCard. This card is issued when a person takes up employment at the University or after enrolment as a doctoral student.
The library offers regular guided tours and training courses. Doctoral students without an office at the University can request a carrel in the library for use as a desk. For more information, please contact the library.
When you start your employment or when you enrol, you will receive a CampusCard that allows you to access a variety of services at the University. If you are employed at the University and enrolled for doctoral study at the same time, you are entitled to an ID for employees that additionally gets you discounts at the refectory and the bus pass functionality.
In order to use the semester ticket for the bus, an informal application for the issuance of a so-called supplementary study ID must be submitted to the Student Registration Office each semester. In addition, you can obtain a card for the refectory (with student tariff) against a deposit at the Studentenwerk (Student Union) upon presentation of this supplementary student ID. For further information, please visit the University's help pages.
The ZIM account is needed for a number of purposes, including for registration in Stud.IP, the university's virtual learning environment, or for accessing the University Library's e-media.
Every employee is given a ZIM account and an e-mail address in the format 'given name.family name@uni-passau.de' when he or she takes up employment. On request, external habilitation researchers are given an account and an e-mail address (in the format 'given name-family name@uni-passau.de). You can also extend your current account and/or e-mail address on request if you are no longer employed at the University, provided you continue your habilitation research.
