Education / Pedagogy
German term or phrase: Studiendekan
Mit dem Master-Zeugnis wird eine Master-Urkunde ausgestellt, die eine Gesamtnote ausweist und die von der Präsidentin oder von dem Präsidenten der XXX Fachhochschule und von der Dekanin oder vom Dekan des Fachbereichs bzw. der **Studiendekanin oder dem Studiendekan** des Studiengangs unterzeichnet und mit dem Siegel der Fachhochschule versehen wird.

So what's the difference between a Dekan and a Studiendekan? The answer should reflect a British context, since I'm translating into BE.
