Spanish term or phrase: Analista superior
Esta frase aparece en un título universitario. Analista superior en administración de empresas.

Vi que ¨Analista superior¨ algunos lo traducen como ¨Senior Analyst¨, pero también lo he visto como ¨Superior Analyst¨ y ¨Higher Analyst¨. ¿Todas estas opciones son correctas? ¿Según su opinión, cuál es la que se usa con más frecuencia en el ámbito educativo?
Carolmar
Advanced business administration analyst
Explanation:
I would opt for this or something similar. There is no point in trying to match this title to that of a university degree in the US or UK since they are not equivalent. There is also not likely to be a universally accepted English translation for this Argentine degree.

Suerte.

Advanced Analyst


Explanation:
I would go with "Advanced Analyst" here. See definition number (6) for "superior," Collins English-Spanish Unabridged Dictionary, Sixth, Seventh, and Eighth Editions.

I would be careful to only translate the text, and not stray into evaluating the degree.

senior business (administration) analyst


Explanation:
The standard collocation is "senior analyst" - you can use it here with or without administration.

Senior systems analyst, senior production analyst, senior economic analyst, senior management analyst. Check out the job adverts in the url below
