About the Supervisory Board

The Supervisory Board independently assesses the overall governance of the university, appoints the members of the Executive Board, and advises the Executive Board where necessary. Important planning documents such as the strategic plan, the budget, the annual financial report, the management report and the management and administration regulations must be approved by the Supervisory Board.
