Faculties
Aalborg University encompasses three faculties, under which all research and educational activities take place. Each faculty is organised into a number of departments, centres and schools, which work with specific scientific areas within the faculty’s main areas. Likewise, the boards of studies - which are responsible for the various study programmes - are also organised under each faculty. The three faculties are each headed by a dean.
As of January 1, 2007 the Danish Building Research Institute (SBi) is also a part of Aalborg University.
