The Internal Organisation of UCLy
The organisation and governance of UCLy are governed by the canonical statutes approved by the Holy See (December 2013 statutes) and by the civil statutes of the association AFPICL (Association of the Founders and Protectors of the Catholic Institute of Lyon, a non-profit organisation under the French 1901 law, recognised as being of public interest on 24 July 2000).
The Rector is responsible for all academic, organisational, and political dimensions of the university. In this role, he is supported by the Rectoral Team, composed of the Vice-Rectors, and by a Deans’ Council bringing together the Faculty Deans, the Vice-Rectors, and the Rector. This council is responsible for strategic reflection and preparing the work of the other statutory councils of UCLy.
The Rectoral Team:
The Deans of the 7 Faculties and the Research Directorate:
The programmes delivered by UCLy’s Faculties, Schools, and Institutes are organised into 7 faculty divisions led by a dean. The Research Unit “CONFLUENCE Sciences and Humanities”, represented by its Director, is shared across all faculty divisions.
