Organisation
Some 200 academics from 20 disciplines of the humanities and social sciences belong to the Cluster of Excellence “Religion and Politics”. It is headed by a board of directors which is elected for two years and consists of nine members entitled to vote, as well as by the meeting of the principal investigators (PI). Prof. Dr. Barbara Stollberg-Rilinger, historian, is the current speaker of the Cluster of Excellence.
The members of the Cluster of Excellence convene for a full meeting once every semester in order to discuss their research agenda and common activities. An advisory board, consisting of internationally renowned figures, gives scientific advice to the cluster and makes recommendations for its further work.
The Cluster’s management is responsible for the academic coordination and practical organisation of the Cluster of Excellence. The Graduate School trains 47 doctoral students within the research association. The first point of contact for externals who are interested is the Centre for Research Communication, which advances the dialogue with the media and with the public.
