Head and Steering Committee

The VDS of Pharmaceutical, Nutritional and Sport Sciences is governed by 3 (Vice-)Heads and a Steering Committee composed of 3 faculty members of the PI panel and 6 student representatives representing the 3 major subjects. The faculty members and student representatives are nominated and elected for a two-year term, with the possibility of re-election.

The Head and Vice-Heads are the main representatives of the doctoral school within the faculty, the university and the outside world and are responsible for making and executing final decisions. They ensure the continuity and development of PhaNuSpo and oversee all matters related to the organisation and ongoing activities of the Doc School.

The Steering Committee discusses and plans the use of the budget, the strategic direction of the school, upcoming events, meetings, annual reports/evaluations, and is responsible for compliance and conflict resolution.
