Each faculty has a Study and Research Commission, which is composed of the heads of the study programmes of the faculty, the elected representatives from the group of professors and lecturers of the faculty and the students of the faculty delegated by the university representation; for inter-faculty study programmes, a joint commission of the two study and research commissions is established.
The tasks of the Study and Research Commission include the preparation of new draft curricula and proposals for the amendment of existing curricula, the election of a dean and his*her deputy from among the heads of the study programmes, the preparation of proposals for the amendment of the study and examination regulations, proposals for the establishment and evaluation of institutes as well as the promotion of young academics and artists and proposals for interdisciplinary research projects and focal points.
The tasks of the Study and Research Commission are regulated in the MUK Articles of association.
