Committee Work
Professors’ Plenary Meeting
Our professors meet once per semester for a workshop in order to discuss all current strategic and operative questions. Apart from this plenary meeting, several committees are at work, e.g. the faculty board.
Staff plenary meeting
Once a semester all staff members meet. The dean, central departments and the academic coordinators’ conference present current developments and projects.

The faculty board needs to give its consent to: 1. the structure and development plans of the faculty, 2. the creation, change and abolishment of institutions within the faculty, 3. the study and examination regulations of the faculty; the approval needs the consent of the respective study commission.
The faculty board consists of elected professors, students and staff members.
