Three student representatives (of which one is preferably a doctoral student) with one group alternate form part of the Advisory Committee for Education. One representative from the faculty’s Council for Educational Development (TUR) has the right to attend and speak at meetings.

The Advisory Committee for Education appoints one of its members as deputy chair.

The Working Committee subsequently decides which of these is to become a member of the Equal Opportunities Committee, as well as the Advisory Committee for Education’s member with special responsibility for ensuring equal opportunities are considered in the work of the Committee.
