The governing bodies and committees of our university shape the institution’s strategic, academic and organisational development. They ensure transparent decision-making and guarantee that the interests of all members of the university community are taken into account. Together, they establish the framework for study, teaching, research and administration.
Led by President Prof. Dr. Volker Reuter, the Office of the President, together with the vice-presidents’ offices, guides the university’s strategic development. Administrative and financial management is the responsibility of Chancellor Dr. Christian Elmo Wolff (focus areas include administrative digitization and university staff Prof 4.0).
The University Council supports the university, assumes responsibility for strategic matters, makes decisions regarding structural and development planning, proposes measures designed to enhance the university’s profile and improve its performance and competitiveness, and oversees the administration of the Rector’s Office.
The Senate is one of the university’s key academic decision-making bodies. It addresses fundamental issues related to student affairs, teaching, research, and academic self-governance. Representatives from various groups within the university work together on the Senate and play an active role in shaping the university’s future development.
