TERMINATION OF OFFICES OF EXECUTIVE OFFICERS OF UNIVERSITIES AND FACULTIES

Summary/Abstract: A university rector and a faculty dean, as executive officers of such institutions, are elected and deselected by a relevant council, as a management body. More detailed terms, method and procedure of selecting and deselecting an executive officer are regulated by the statute of a higher education institution, in accordance with the principle of university autonomy. The Law on Higher Education of the Republic of Serbia provides certain limitations related to the selection of an executive officer, as well as such cases when the termination of office comes by operation of law. The Law, unlike the previous regulations in this area, also introduces some new reasons for the termination of office of executive officers of universities and faculties. Additionally, a novelty is also the authorisation of the minister of education for removal of a rector/dean, at the proposal of educational inspection, if such conditions for their removal are met and the management body has failed to do so. Special attention is paid to this authorisation of the minister, as well as to a grave violation of the ethical code and the recommendation of the Anti-Corruption Agency as the reasons for such a removal.
