The GSGS is led by a Steering Committee consisting of two professors per institute of the Department of Geosciences, two non-professorial academic staff members and two doctoral candidate members, who are also members of the GSGS Doctoral Council. The spokesperson of the GSGS leads the GSGS Steering Committee. The GSGS Manager is a non-voting member of the Steering Committee.
