AN ACADEMIC is a teacher at a College, Institute or University.

AN ACADEMIC VISITOR is a person invited to teach or research from another university for a short period.

ADJUNCT FACULTY - part-time teaching staff.

BURSAR is the member of the staff of an educational institution in England who works with money.

THE CHANCELLOR is a famous person who is Head of the University in name, but not in fact. American Universities usually have Principals.

THE VICE CHANCELLOR is in charge of academic as well as administrative matters.

THE PRO-VICE CHANCELLOR is a deputy of the VICE-CHANCELLOR.

A DEAN at a university is responsible for a Faculty or a large group of students. Thus the Dean of the School of Engineering is in charge of the Chemical, Electrical, Mechanical and other Engineering Departments.

THE PRINCIPAL has the same job as a British Vice-Chancellor. Some American Universities have a Board of Regents, in which case the President of the Board of Regents roughly corresponds with the Chancellor of a British University.

A PROFESSOR is a university teacher who has been appointed to take this position. In England usually only the head of a department is a professor, so the title carries more prestige than in the United States, where many of the teachers in a department may be professors.

A VISITING PROFESSOR is a Professor who is normally based at one institution but who works for short periods of time at another, often on a regular basis.

A PROGRAM DIRECTOR is a person who is responsible for a curriculum and teaching materials for a certain subject or a cycle of disciplines.

'THE REGENTS of the State University of New York set examinations for New York High School students. These examinations are called “Regents”. Students sit for these examinations at about the age of 17 or 18.

THE REGISTRAR is the senior administrator of a British University.

AN UNDERGRADUATE STUDENT is one who has not yet obtained a university degree, or one who is working for a bachelor's degree.

A GRADUATE STUDENT is one who has already obtained one university degree and is studying for another one. You can say “As a rule all our PhD students are graduate students”. Sometimes one says “postgraduate” instead of “graduate”.

A FULL-TIME STUDENT studies at a university all the time. It is also possible to study part-lime. Day-release and blockrelease students study part time.

A part-time course of study is done while the student also works somewhere else. Many part-time students are mothers or have other jobs.
