Representative Bodies

At the University of Zurich exist four representative bodies. These are stipulated in the University Act under Section 19 and guarantee a right of co-determination in university matters. The respective professional organizations elect delegates to the university, faculty and institute committees. The professional associations thus assume an important function in the representation of their respective professional members.
