Explanation: O Reitor dirige uma Universidade, enquanto o Diretor está restrito a uma Faculdade/Escola apenas. No Brasil, usa-se Reitor.
Em inglês, nem sempre a correspondência é biunívoca, pois o Reitor pode ser chamado de outros nomes, além de Dean (President, Chancellor, depende da universidade, do país, etc.).

Explanation: Dean: noun: an administrator in charge of a division of a university or collegen (Merriam-Webster)
Boa tarde! Veja bem, quando eu estudava na Usp, a Usp tinha um reitor que era quem mandava na universidade inteira. A FMUSP tinha um diretor (quando entrei era o Dr. Carlos da Silva Lacaz) quem estava encarregado da Faculdade de Medicina.
Boa sorte!

Como diz a definição em inglês acima, \"dean\" é o administrador que está encarregado de uma divisão/setor de uma universidade ou \"college\" (não existe este nível no Brasil, que é o nos Estados Unidos faz parte do \"undergraduate education\")
