Responsibilities of the Department Council

The Departmental Council is the highest decision-making body of the Department of Computer Science and is responsible for all matters of the department, unless another responsibility is expressly determined. In order to carry out its tasks, the Departmental Council can elect, appoint and/or commission committees, commissions, working groups and task forces. It is responsible for all matters of fundamental importance to the department. These include, among other things, the enactment of examination regulations, the adoption of the structural plan, the coordination of research projects and decisions on appointment proposals of the appointment committees.
The meetings of the Faculty Council are generally open to the public. Exceptions to this rule are items on the agenda concerning personnel decisions.
