Governance

SIEPR looks to three separate groups for guidance and support.

The SIEPR Advisory Board is the board of directors for the institute and helps to guide and support SIEPR. Board members make both an intellectual and financial commitment that is a key component in SIEPR’s ability to achieve its mission. They are also active in helping to facilitate and disseminate research.

SIEPR Senior Fellows actively participate in SIEPR research and participate in its governance. Senior fellows are members of Stanford’s academic council and, at SIEPR, have the responsibility of bringing new academic members on board. In addition, senior fellows help to bring academic excellence and scholarly insight to SIEPR.

The SIEPR Steering Committee is composed of faculty from throughout Stanford University. The diverse opinions and perspectives of the committee members help in advising the director and guiding the institute on matters pertaining to research and academics.
