Governance Structure
The Centre for Global Studies is governed by a Program Committee which meets several times each year.
The Program Committee is made up of 番茄社区 faculty members. The committee reviews academic projects undertaken by the centre, adjudicates fellowship applications and provides liaison to UVic faculties and departments.

The CFGS program committee normally meets 2 times per year. It is composed of 10-12 members, including: CFGS Project Leads; ex-officio memberships representing other Centres as well as the Associate Vice-President Research; and, UVic faculty members from across the university. UVic faculty members normally serve a 2-year, renewable term.
The program committee acts as a steering committee, advising the Centre’s director and providing strategic oversight; facilitating close relationships between the Centre and the broader university community; and, more specifically, reviewing applications for the Centre’s fellowship program.
