ACADEMIC AFFAIRS COMMITTEE

The academic affairs committee approves academic regulations before they are presented to the administrative board. It is convened at least once every semester either by the director or at the request of a majority of its members.

Two thirds of the members of the academic affairs committee are the elected representatives of the conservatory teaching staff. The total number of members of the academic affairs committee is determined by an official decision published by the Ministry of Culture

The academic affairs committee is chaired by the director, who informs the teachers and students concerned of its decisions.
