Administration

The staff of the administration support the Director and the scientific departments of the Institute in achieving their scientific goals, taking into account the legal, financial and personnel framework. In accordance with the requirements of a modern administration, the administration sees itself as a service department of the IOW in the following areas:

• Finance (financial accounting, procurement, third-party funding management)
• Personnel (personnel matters, law, organization)
• Operating technology (building services, construction maintenance, vehicle fleet, guest rooms)

Administrative staff ensure that day-to-day research can run smoothly. The requirements of the federal and state governments are implemented accordingly.
