Organization
Even a medium-sized campus university with around 13,500 students needs to be well organised. An overview of our organizational structure.
The University is controlled by its central bodies: The University Governing Board, the Senate, and the University Council. Furthermore, the Faculties are central pillars of the University. They are led by the Dean's Office and the Faculty Council. The Dean's Office implements the decisions of the Faculty Council and conducts the day-to-day business of the faculty.
The University Governing Board and faculties are supported by other advisory bodies, by the Board of Trustees and, of course, by the central facilities such as the library or the IT Service Centre.
Central bodies
The University Governing Board conducts the day-to-day business of the
University and is responsible for establishing principles for evaluation and
quality assurance. The members of the University Governing Board, with the
exception of the President and the Provost, are elected by the University
Council on the proposal of the President.
President
The President represents the University, provides initiatives for the development of the University and drafts the principles of the University's policy objectives. He or she is the supervisor of the academic staff and the Provost. In cooperation with the dean, the president ensures that professors and other persons obliged to teach properly fulfil their teaching and examination obligations.
