Leadership and Strategy
Committees
Overview
To effectively implement the work of Senate and the overall implementation of the University Strategic Plan, it is essential that committees are formed. Committees are expected to have their own Terms of Reference and functions and are more specialized in dealing with the matters at hand.
There are existing committees which were formed under the previous management. Most of these committees are still relevant. However, some of them will have newer names and added responsibilities and members. However, there will also be newer committees to lead the work of the University.
Committees will be required to prepare papers on their work and report to the Senate – either on the day of the meeting or in advance. Committee also create an option for staff to be engaged with the planning and achievement of the University goals.
