Staff Scientists' Council

The Staff Scientists’ Council aims to promote the academic status of Staff Scientists at the Institute and to increase their contribution and influence on the scientific research performed on campus.

An elected Chairman and two elected members comprise the Council’s Executive Committee and head the Council. This committee represents the Staff Scientists in the Institute’s Scientific Council and in meetings with the administration and the President. An additional eight elected members complete the eleven membered Council. The eleven representatives are democratically chosen every two years in an election administered by the Academic Secretary.

The Protocols (Takanon) of the Staff Scientists Council is available in Hebrew and English.
