The University Council is a permanent commission of the Council of State for university matters. It’s a consultative authority at the disposal of the department of public education, culture and sports (DICS) for all questions the board wishes to submit in connection with its own tasks. The University Council is also a financial authority, charged with the management of the funds it has been entrusted with.
