Programme Councils for Doctoral Programmes
Quality issues and important administrative matters concerning education programs at undergraduate, advanced and postgraduate level are prepared in consultation with the programme's program council and are led by the respective program manager. The program councils are advisory bodies to program managers. Several thematically related programs can have a common program board.
Meetings
Program council meetings are held twice per semester and in addition if necessary.
Tasks
Questions that are dealt with in the program councils include the preparation of questions with a direct connection to the program's follow-up and quality development, among other things:
- changes to course plans
- proposed list of examiners before each academic year/calendar year as well as changes during the academic year/calendar year
- development of course offerings
- establishment of new course cancellation of course
- review and develop the program's course offerings and follow up on quality aspects based on course evaluations and course analyses
- systematic quality assurance of the development work of the educational program
- program-specific measures for further education of teachers/supervisors (as well as doctoral students)
