The elected faculty council includes representatives of all member groups and the equal opportunities representative. At our faculty, we attach great importance to ensuring that as many pillars as possible are represented in all member groups. As a rule, the Faculty Council is elected every three years.
In addition to the elected members, the extended Faculty Council includes all the faculty's university teachers. Matters on which the extended Faculty Council decides are regulated in § 88, paragraph 2 SächsHSFG.
