Director Decano

Spanish to English Social Sciences Education / Pedagogy Firma de un diploma universitario
¡Hola! Espero que puedan ayudarme. Estoy en duda en cuanto al título a usar.

Se trata de una firma al pie de un diploma universitario. Estoy traduciendo para el Reino Unido.

Nombre + apellido
Director Decano
Depto. de Ciencias Sociales

Pensé en "Principal Dean" pero me parece muy literal. Tengo mis dudas. Mirar este enlace, por favor:

Les dejo el enlace donde aparece el cargo que ocupa esa persona:

Votes to reclassify question as PRO/non-PRO:

Non-PRO (1): Yvonne Gallagher

When entering new questions, KudoZ askers are given an opportunity* to classify the difficulty of their questions as 'easy' or 'pro'. If you feel a question marked 'easy' should actually be marked 'pro', and if you have earned more than 20 KudoZ points, you can click the "Vote PRO" button to recommend that change.

How to tell the difference between "easy" and "pro" questions:

An easy question is one that any bilingual person would be able to answer correctly. (Or in the case of monolingual questions, an easy question is one that any native speaker of the language would be able to answer correctly.)

A pro question is anything else... in other words, any question that requires knowledge or skills that are specialized (even slightly).

Another way to think of the difficulty levels is this: an easy question is one that deals with everyday conversation. A pro question is anything else.

When deciding between easy and pro, err on the side of pro. Most questions will be pro.

* Note: non-member askers are not given the option of entering 'pro' questions; the only way for their questions to be classified as 'pro' is for a ProZ.com member or members to re-classify it.

Dean

That's all you need to say. It's the person in charge of the department.

I think they just mean "the Dean" and the "Director" component is just them hedging their bets, in case somebody reading it doesn't know what the Dean is.
