Board composition
The composition of the board is defined by general organisational rules for the departments of the University of Oslo (available in Norwegian only). In compliance with these rules, the board comprises:
- the Head of Department (chairman)
- three representatives for academic staff
- one representative for temporary academic staff
- one representative for administrative staff
- two student representatives
- one external representative
The Head of Research attends board meetings and reserves the right to make proposals, but is not involved in decision-making. However, as Deputy Head of Department, the Head of Research assumes the role of Chairman of the Board in the absence of the Head of Department.
The Head of Department and academic staff representatives serve four-year terms. Temporary staff and student representatives are elected for a one-year term. The Secretary for the Board is the Head of Administration at the Department.
