Discussion

merlrennes Nov 10, 2014:
Instructor-researcher gives the idea of a junior position. In fact an enseignant-chercheur is a faculty member (Full, associate or assistant professor in US, Professor, reader or lecturer in UK.). The (French) title distinguishes the person from CNRS personnel (who in principle only do research, though these positions are prestigious). I would suggest "Member of the Faculty of the University".
Chairman of the Examining Board is correct.

By the chairman of the examination board, instructor-researcher

The "jury" in this case is the group that grades the student's exam.
Peer comment(s):

neutral AllegroTrans : "instructor-researcher" somehow does not sound like a member of an examination board; any evidence?
28 mins
neutral B D Finch : Some chairs are women and gender-neutral language should be used here. The hyphenated "instructor-researcher" doesn't sound either likely or academic.
18 hrs
neutral Nikki Scott-Despaigne : The choice of "instructor" here bugs me a little. I have never come across it is academic contexts, only in sport.
