Executive Council Meetings

The Executive Council is composed of the President, two Vice-Presidents (President-Elect and Past President), Secretary General, Treasurer, Scientific Director, and Scientific Secretary, together with the National Councillors (or their Alternates). In addition, committee members, division members, and other who have a constructive interest in the activities of the Union may attend as Observers. A General Meeting is held every three years in connection with the International Vacuum Congress. In attendance are Officers of the Union and three delegates from each member society. Annual General Meetings begin in 2012 and are held in the first half of each year.
