The faculty is governed by the Faculty Board, who collaborates with the Faculty Joint Assembly. Both students and staff members serve in the Faculty Joint Assembly and on various participational bodies and committees.

Faculty Joint Assembly 

During the Faculty Joint Assembly (FGV), staff and students meet with the Faculty Board to discuss the current and future policies of the faculty. The participational bodies are organised in the Representative Council (OC). The Faculty Student Council (FSR) promotes the interests of the students. These are usually public meetings.  

Representative Council

The Representative Council (RC) is the participatory body for faculty staff and is part of the Works Council at Radboud University. The Works Council consists of eleven members and you can go to each of them with tips, comments or questions about matters in the faculty.
