Dear all,
The division for Tectonics and Structural Geology (TS) of EGU is seeking
a new president for 2017-2019. I can tell you that the role is great
fun!
The division president is of course expected to play a strong role in
the TS programme of the EGU General Assembly and will be involved in
setting up the schedule of sessions, awarding it's Medal and awards
( http://www.egu.eu/ts/awards-medals/ ) to organising division feedback
through for example the division meeting. But the division president
also serves on EGU council and thus helps the Union with many aspects
that involve not only the General Assembly, but also the publications,
external events, outreach, education etc.
The TS division is organised in several committees with wonderful
volunteers, such as the programme committee, the Stephan Mueller medal
committee, the outstanding ECS award committee, OSPP coordinator, ECS
representatives and media officer - you can find them all on
http://www.egu.eu/ts/structure/
A division president serves for maximum 2x2 years and the new president
would take over from me at the EGU General Assembly in Vienna in April
next year.
More information about the upcoming election can be found here:

or go directly to the form:

The deadline for proposal of candidates is 15 September.
Please just drop me a message ([log in to unmask]) if you could think
of volunteering! I am happy to answer any questions you may have and
provide more details about the role.
Looking forward to your replies,
Susanne
