New ETH Zurich and EPFL Executive Board Members

(ETH Board, September 25, 2020)

The ETH Board recently appointed two new members of the Executive Board of ETH Zürich and three new members of the Executive Board of EPFL. The appointments at ETH Zurich increase the management structure from five to seven Executive Board domains, thanks to the creation of two new vice presidencies for “Personnel Development and Leadership” and “Knowledge Transfer and Corporate Relations.” The appointments at EPFL are part of Prof. Martin Vetterli’s initiative to streamline his management team, and includes the creation of new vice presidencies for “Responsible Transformation,” “Academic Affairs” and “Operations.” The Board of Directors of Paul Scherrer Institut (PSI) is also being extended through the appointment of Dr. Thierry Strässle. In addition, the ETH Board defined the profile for the vacant position of Director of WSL.
