PIER Boards

The strategic and operational governance of PIER is carried out by three governing bodies: The PIER Commission consists of leading management representatives of DESY and the University of Hamburg and is in charge of all strategic and long-term decisions. The members of the PIER Executive Board are senior DESY and the University of Hamburg scientists from the PIER research and competence fields.

They are responsible for the operational decisions and activities of PIER. The PIER Helmholtz Graduate Sch­ool Steering Committee is made up of the two PHGS spokespeople, the PHGS coordinators and the spokespeople of the PhD representatives DOIT. Together, they decide on all matters concerning the operation of the graduate school.
