The Executive Committee, which is charged with "responsibility for general administration and superintendence of all matters relating to the Corporation," meets ten times each academic year. Chaired by the President, the Executive Committee includes five members of the Corporation serving staggered five-year terms, three members serving staggered three-year terms, and the Chairman, the Treasurer of the Corporation, and the chair of the Investment Company Management Board, ex officio. The Secretary of the Corporation serves as the Secretary of the Executive Committee. The meetings are regularly attended by the Provost.

The agenda of the Executive Committee typically includes such topics as developments in interdisciplinary education and research; student recruitment, admissions and financial aid policies; student life; campus planning; external relations; the sponsorship of research; and changes in the senior administration. The Committee devotes substantial time to the discussion of budget processes, financial planning, and the management and enhancement of the Institute's resources.
