Programme Committee

Every degree programme or cluster of degree programmes has a Programme Committee installed by the Faculty Board. The Programme Committee has the following duties:

  • To advise on the Teaching and Examination Regulations ('OER').

  • To annually assess the way the Teaching and Examination Regulations are implemented.

  • To advise (solicited or unsolicited) on all matters relating to teaching in the respective degree programme.

The Programme Committee advises either the programme director, the Faculty Board (usually via the programme director), or individual lecturers. Half of the members of the Programme Committee are students and half are staff. Lastly, the Commissioner of Education of GLV Idun is the board representative of the PC and is responsible for sharing information from the students from the year representation.
