Faculty Council
Faculty Council
The Faculty Council issues recommendations and statements about the Medical Faculty’s development plan, about the principles for the disbursement and use of federal state funds, including the criteria for merit-based disbursement of funds, and about other fundamentally important affairs of the Medical Faculty. The Faculty Council is also responsible for decision-making in matters related to appointment procedures incumbent on the Medical Faculty; for the awarding of the title “Supernumerary Professor” (“Apl. Professor”) and “Honorary Professor”; and for habilitations and honorary doctorates. One meeting each of the Faculty Council is specifically dedicated to the topics of teaching and research. The term of office of the voting members from the student body is one year; the representatives of the other groups serve two-year terms.
