Organisation
The steering committee is the central decision-making body within the Geoverbund ABC/J. Each cooperation partner sends two professors (directorate), one representative of the academic staff and one representative of the student body to the steering committee. The directorate elects a scientific director and a deputy every two years. Below you will find an overview of the current members of the steering group.
