Ernst Reuter Foundation for Advanced Study

Board of Trustees

Like the Wissenschaftskolleg itself, the Ernst Reuter Foundation for Advanced Study was set up in 1980. Its task is to procure the funds needed to operate the Wissenschaftskolleg. The Board of Trustees consists of the Wissenschaftkolleg's most important financial sponsors, the members of the Association of the Wissenschaftskolleg, and personalities of public life. The Board of Trustees contributes to the central personnel decisions of the Wissenschaftskolleg, especially in the appointment of the Rector and the Permanent Fellows.
