Organizational Structure

The five faculty directors of the France Chicago Center work closely with representatives of the French Ministry of Foreign Affairs on matters pertaining to the Center's programs and development. In areas relating to academic programming, the Center relies heavily upon advice and initiative provided by its Faculty Committee.

The directors also consult regularly with the center's Advisory Committee—comprised of distinguished members of the Chicago-area business community—particularly in matters pertaining to outreach, special programs, and long-range planning. An assistant director sees to the day-to-day operations of the Center.
