The SCRIPTS Executive Board is responsible for all major decisions and policies and guides SCRIPTS toward reaching its objectives. In particular, the Executive Board develops and coordinates the SCRIPTS research programme, decides on funding applications, and reports on progress to the DFG. In addition, the Executive Board advises the SCRIPTS Directors on the budget, determines the admission and exclu­sion of members, and leads planning and quality assurance activities related to supporting struc­tures.

The Board is composed of the Directors, the heads of the Research Units, the Early Career Ombudsperson, the Equal Opportunity Coordinator, a Postdoctoral Representative, and a Doctoral Representative.
