Governors of the College
The Governing Body determines Birkbeck’s future direction and promotes the fulfilment of the College’s mission, the advancement of its values and the potential of all its learners.
The Governing Body is responsible for ensuring compliance with the College’s constitutional and regulatory framework and takes all final decisions on strategic matters and issues of fundamental concern to the College.
It also regulates the College’s framework of governance and takes the lead in ensuring its efficacy, looking to Academic Board to act similarly in respect of academic governance and seeking to have in place arrangements that are coherent, internally consistent, proportionate to risks and opportunities and which support the Governing Body and the Academic Board in their roles.
