The department committees ensure during the semester the required teaching in their fields. At their meetings, there is an exchange about research and teaching, planning and organization of seminars, excursions and events. They also discuss the allocation of funds for the specializations, the selection of visiting professorships, and the texts for the departmental appointment procedures.
