Central infrastructure & administrative departments
CAMPUS 02’s central infrastructure and administrative departments directly report to the Management Board. They support the various degree programme departments in all matters regarding administration, personnel, purchasing, infrastructure and finance, whilst offering support within the framework of activities covering central PR & communication, R&D, internationalisation and foreign languages.
As such, not only do they help to relieve the degree programme departments in operational matters, but, thanks to the consequent content focus of activities pertaining to all degree programmes, they also contribute to synergy across the board.
Regular network meetings between administrative departments and representatives of the individual degree programmes ensure a continual exchange of know-how and efficiency measures, thereby leading to transparency of measures in place.
