Faculty Joint Assembly
The Faculty Joint Assembly (FJA) forms co-determination within the faculty. In the FJA, members of the Subcommittee on Literature (SCL) and members of the Faculty Student Council on Literature (FSRL) meet with the Faculty Board. The SCL is the co-determination body for the staff of the Faculty of Arts and, as such, part of the University Works Council. The FSRL represents students' interests; the voice of staff and students is therefore heard in the FSRL.

Every study programme has a Study Programme Committee. Half of the members of a Study Programme Committee are elected by and from among the study programme students; the other half of the committee consists of members of the academic staff of the study programme in question. The committee is concerned with ensuring and improving the quality of the study. You can find more information on the STIP website about the programme committees.

The Subcommittee (OCL) is the employee participation body for the staff of the Faculty of Arts and, as such, is part of the University Works Council. You can approach the OCL members with questions, problems and suggestions related to your work in this faculty.
