STEERING COMMITTEES

 

INCLUSIVE AND TRANSPARENT

The Core Labs’ Steering Committees have been established to help us review and regulate best practices and strategy across our operations. The focal mandate of the committees is to ensure efficient and fair usage of lab resources, to monitor lab performance, and to promote continuous improvements. Each committee consists of Core Lab staff and KAUST faculty members, all users of the relevant lab area. These members are appointed by the KAUST vice president for research in consultation with the director of Core Labs. The committees are co-chaired by a faculty member and the director of the corresponding lab. This signals the importance of maintaining a balance between scientific and operational strategy to ensure the labs stay true to our purpose of delivering impact.
