Department Board of Management
The Department of Mechanical Engineering is headed
by the Dean, two Vice Deans and the Dean of Studies,
elected by the faculty of the department every three years.
In order to facilitate communication and to put decisions
onto a broader base, the current Dean, Prof. Tim Lueth,
established a Department Board of Management in 2014,
comprising the deans and representatives of groups of
professors, each assigned with a specific portfolio of
responsibilities. The Department Board of Management
acts as an advisor to the Dean; the responsibility of the
Departmental Board (‘Fakultätsrat’) regarding formal
academic matters remains untouched.
