From 1965 to 1976 he taught general and comparative regional history at the Saarland University in Saarbrücken, and from 1976 to 1995 he worked as a professor of medieval history and comparative regional history at the Institute for Bavarian History at the University of Munich .

Prinz had been a full member of the humanities class at the Sudeten German Academy of Sciences and Arts since 1979 . From 1976 to 1994 was co-editor of the journal for East Central Europe research .

His main areas of work were the history of the Bohemian countries, the history of Bavaria and the early Middle Ages , whereby he dealt intensively with the transition from late antiquity to the Middle Ages . In addition to numerous articles, Prinz published many, in some cases extensive, comprehensive presentations and monographs on these research areas, many of which are considered standard works.
