The President is the chair of the board and also represents the university in external matters. The University Board is responsible for all matters and decisions made by the University that do not expressly fall under the jurisdiction of another body. The University Board focuses on the planning, management, and coordination of cross-faculty tasks.

University Electoral Assembly
The University Electoral Assembly was constituted as a new body in 2015 with the purpose of electing full-time University Board members. It consisted of members of the Senate and University Council.
The central task of the University Electoral Assembly is the election of the members of the University Board.
Half of the University Electoral Assembly consists of members of the Senate and the other half is made up of members of the University Council. The external members of the University Council as well as the voting members in the Senate are entitled to vote. The votes of the external members of the University Council are weighted accordingly so that the votes of the members of the two halves are in equal proportion to each other.
