The Rector is responsible for representational tasks, such as presiding over University functions, management undertakings, such as convening and presiding over the Staff and Board meetings and implementing their agreements and those of the Social Council, convening selection processes for filling places and appointing and contracting teaching staff and the University's administration and service personnel.
