The EELISA governance relies on the following bodies:
- The Governing Board (executive) defines the strategy and nominates the members of the other boards. This board also includes the EELISA President and a representative of students, academic and administrative staff.
- The Academic & Scientific Board (advisory) advises the governing board on educational and scientific issues (as well as societal challenges EELISA may focus on. The EELISA Dean of Studies is the coordinator of this board.
- The Employment Committee (advisory) advises the Academic & Scientific Board on employability, entrepreneurship education and internships.
- The Evaluation Committee (quality assessment) monitors EELISA’s activity, assesses the implementation of internal quality procedures and outcomes through relevant indicators.
- The Executive Board (operational) is composed by representatives from each full partner of the alliance.
- The EELISA Office manages the project and is led by the Executive Director, who is also a member of the Executive Board.
- In addition, each EELISA community will have its own EELISA Community Board composed of researchers/professors, students and stakeholders (representatives of public authorities, NGOs, private companies, etc).
