Steering committee
The steering committee consists equally of members from the mathematical sciences and the SEE disciplines, and has an elected spokesperson. The plenum of doctoral fellows elect two representatives annually, who represent the ideas and wishes of the doctoral fellows within the steering committee and engage in the further development of the school.
