Department Organization

The Department Council is the organ that directs, plans, coordinates and verifies the Department's activity. It exercises all the powers that are conferred on it by the current legislation, the Statute and Regulations and is composed by all the professors and full-time researchers of the Department. 

Along with the Steering Committee, it plans, each year, the recruitment needs (structured in discipline sectors) for new professors and reasearchers.

The Department's didactic business, activating and de-activating courses, and running general services are carried out by the School of Medicine , which operates as a liaison structure for the medical area departments. It also links up with the National Health Service.
