Governance of the Institute for mechanical engineering is provided by several complementary bodies that monitor, implement and evaluate the Institute’s missions and activities. The Institute’s executive office implements and coordinates the initiatives and missions of the IMI.
To successfully complete its coordination mission, the Institute’s executive office is supported by 4 bodies: the Institute Council, the Scientific Council, the Advisory Board and the STAB (Scientific & Training Advisory Board). These different structures make strategic and operational decisions concerning the IMI.
The institute is administered by the Institute Council, which approves its main guidelines in terms of research, training and innovation. The Institute Council members are entitled to vote within two colleges and must meet at least twice a year.
The Scientific Council assists the Director and the Office with the institute’s scientific policy. In particular, it drafts and selects calls for projects launched by the institute. It is also responsible for organising scientific events focused on five strategic areas. Comprising 20 members, it is organised around area managers from 4 laboratories and also ensures the exchange of information with the latter.

The Advisory Board is a strategic committee that meets annually.
The institute has a Scientific & Training Advisory Board (STAB) comprising national and international members who are external to the University and who are tasked with supporting the scientific and educational path of the institute and of shedding light on its national, European and international positioning.
