University management

The Executive Board is responsible for the efficient and effective management of Leiden University. The Board of Governors monitors the Executive Board and appoints its members. The Executive Board regularly consults the University Council, which advises the Executive Board and has a say in important matters and decisions. The Executive Board and the faculty deans consult in the Administrative Meeting, and the deans also have their own consultation structure: the Council of Deans, which is chaired by the Rector Magnificus.
