The Senate

The Senate decides on matters relating to research, teachung and studies. Among its duties are:

  • Set up, change, and cancel study programs and university facilites
  • Decide fundamental research questions
  • Foster young scientific talent
  • Technology transfer
  • Elect the adjunct Rectorate members and, jointly with the University Council, elect the full-time members of the Rectorate
