Organization Chart

With eight collaborating institutions, five potential funding sources/agencies, three countries, and a budget that is a factor of ten above previous investments in gamma-ray projects of this nature, VERITAS requires a complex management structure. We have settled on a structure in which the ultimate authority rests with a representative Executive Committee, in which the daily management is vested in a Project Scientist/Spokesperson and Project Office, and in which the project is divided into eighteen Sub-projects. Each Sub-project has an individual Leader and Manager; Sub-projects that closely overlap are grouped together with Group Coordinators.

The project will be organized as shown in the Figure 9.
