The PLUS Board of Trustees

The PLUS Board of Trustees consists of renowned personalities from the fields of science, business, politics, culture and religion who have a special connection to the PLUS and/or to Salzburg. Members of the Board offer their outside view of the PLUS from different perspectives and primarily act in an advisory and supportive capacity for the Rectorate. They also serve as ambassadors for the University.

Members’ support will help the PLUS to respond to current societal challenges effectively and to continue to improve the visibility of the PLUS in research and teaching.
