Our Advisory Council: Personalities from Science and Economy advise the Department of Informatics
Nothing is so good that it cannot be improved. For this reason the TU München's Department of Informatics decided early on that external help would be sought to consult in strategic decisions. Acknowledged personalities both domestic and foreign from Science and the Economy advise the department and examine recommendations about the long-term direction of research and doctrines.
On the recommendation of the Department the President of the TU München appointed members of the Advisory Council in May 2000. Once a year the council meets with professors of the department.
