Central University Administration

Efficient Structural Organization

The university administration’s two core areas of responsibility are each handled by a designated department. The first of these is the Department of Academic Affairs (Department II), which is divided into the following Sections: Registrar; Student Advisory Service / International Office; and the Office of Examinations.

The second major core responsibility concerns the administration and management of all resources; meaning staff, budgets, and classroom and office facilities. These duties are addressed by the Personnel/Human Resources and Finance Department (Department III). The further subdivision of the department into sections is geared to operational duties.

Legal Affairs, Data Protection, Internal Auditing, and Process Management/Regulation/Optimization are Executive Administrative Units under the direction of the Chancellor.

Additionally, there are six independently operating Administrative Divisions that deal with comprehensive administrative sectors:

• Z/AF: Internal Operations & Site Management
• Z/PQM: Planning, Controlling & Quality Management
• Z/KOM: Communication & Alumni
• Z/FuT: Research & Transfer
• Z/IS: Information Systems
• Z/ARCH: University Archives
