The Faculty Council brings together the decanate and all the professors of a faculty. The mid-level academic staff and students each have up to two representatives in it respectively. The Faculty Council is led by the dean, assisted by a maximum of two vice-deans. The languages of study, levels of study and diversity must be taken into account appropriately. Its competences and composition are governed by the General faculty regulations (In French and German only), Articles 5 and 6.
The faculty council is responsible for:
