ETSETB board

Article 11. Nature

The Board, chaired by the director or director, is the governing body of the School. The Board ensures that the School adequately fulfills all the functions attributed to it by current regulations, the Statutes of the UPC, and this organization and functioning regulation.

Article 12. Composition

The School Board is composed of:

1. Natural members

In accordance with article 80.2 of the Statutes of the UPC, the following are natural members of the Board:

    a. The director.
    b. The deputy directors.
    c. The secretary.
    d. The head of the transversal management unit that serves the School.
    e. The head of management of the bachelor's and master's programs of the School.
    f.  The delegate of the students of the School.


2. Elected members

    a. A number of representatives of the teaching and research staff equal to 71 minus the number of natural members belonging to the teaching and research staff.

    b. A number of representatives of the administration and services staff equal to 12 minus the number of natural members belonging to the administration and services staff.

    c. A number of representatives of the students equal to 26 minus the number of natural members belonging to the student body.


The representation of the teaching and research staff is distributed among the permanent faculty and the rest of the teaching and research staff proportionally to the teaching activity points taught at the School by each group in the last two years. The minimum number of representatives of the permanent faculty is 56.

The representation of the permanent faculty is distributed in electoral districts by departments with significant teaching at the School. Significant teaching is understood as more than 2% of the teaching activity points taught at the School in the last two years. The rest of the departments that teach at the School are grouped into a single electoral district. The number of representatives for each district will be proportional to the teaching activity points taught at the School by each district in the last two years.

In the distribution of the number of representatives among the different electoral districts, the rule of the larger fractions defined in the Electoral Regulations must be applied.

In the event that the percentage of permanent faculty at the University is less than fifty-one percent of the members of the School Board, its representation must be immediately increased to achieve this percentage.

This increase applies to the number of representatives from the PDI-A sector. First, any vacancies that may exist in the electoral districts of this sector must be filled, and in the event that there are no vacancies per district, an election must be held for a single electoral district (teaching center), and the number of representatives needed to achieve the fifty-one percent must be elected.

The rest of the teaching and research staff have a single electoral district.

The representation of the administration staff includes the administration and services staff of the transversal management unit when this staff provides services to the School; the administration and services staff of libraries, under the terms and conditions established in the UPC Electoral Regulations, and the administration and services staff assigned to the teaching center.

For the election of representatives of the administration and services staff, classifications of civil service and staff under labor contract are established; the number of representatives is distributed proportionally to the registries of these classifications. Representatives are elected by members of these classifications from among these same members.

In the representation corresponding to undergraduate and master's students, it must be ensured that each of the School's degrees with a representative with a valid vote is represented. However, if any degree does not have any representative, the total number of representatives corresponding to undergraduate and master's students is not affected.
