titular de la cátedra Cora Chaired

Yo creo que queda más claro así, en vez de "catedrática Cora Chaired".

Cora Chaired es el nombre de la persona que dotó la cátedra que lleva su nombre, algo muy frecuente en las instituciones universitarias estadounidenses, como INSEAD.

Oleg tiene toda la razón: la cátedra no se llama "Cora Chaired", sino simplemente "Cora" (nombre de unos hipermercados belgas). "Chaired" significa "holder of a chair" (titular de una cátedra). Así que la traducción es simplemente "titular de la cátedra Cora".

Y por cierto, INSEAD no es una institución estadounidense, sino francesa, con sedes también en Singapur y Abu Dhabi.

Lamento estos errores y agradezco mucho a nuestro colega Oleg Lozinskiy sus investigaciones, que permiten corregirlos.
Peer comment(s):
neutral Oleg Lozinskiy : 'Cora Chaired' is NOT an INDIVIDUAL, rather 'Cora' is the name of a sponsoring company while 'Chaired Professor' is the title of an academic position at INSEAD (ref. to the below). Many thanks for inspiring me to research this question further. :-)

Thank you very much for your correction, Oleg. You are quite right: it is a chair named after Cora, a Belgian hypermarket chain: https://ru.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cora . I will correct the glossary entry and add a note for English-Spanish users.

'Cora Chaired' - is it an individual?

To: Those Who May Become Interested

The same question has just been asked in EN->RU pair ( http://www.proz.com/kudoz/6259976#13548587 ), and my research has allowed to discover that:

(1) At INSEAD Herminia Ibarra was Chaired Professor of Organizational Behavior (2002-2007) and since 2007 she holds the position of The Cora Chaired Professor of Leadership and Learning
https://www.google.ru/url?sa=t&rct=j&q=&esrc=s&source=web&cd...

(2) Amongst many other chairs and fellowships INSEAD has The Cora Chair in Leadership and Learning
Ref. to Faculty & Research at https://www.insead.edu/give/corporate-associate-programme

(3) In 2005 among INSEAD's Professors there was D. Charles Galunic (CA), the Cora Chaired Professor of Retailing and Management
https://www.google.ru/url?sa=t&rct=j&q=&esrc=s&source=web&cd...

(4) INSEAD's Circle of Patrons included Philippe Bouriez, Président d’Honneur, Cora (in memoriam)
https://www.google.ru/url?sa=t&rct=j&q=&esrc=s&source=web&cd...

(5) INSEAD has been '...sponsored by Alcatel, Roland Berger & Partners, Cable & Wireless, Cora, Morgan Stanley, SAP and 3i'.
https://sites.insead.edu/media_relations/press_release/2001_...

and

(6) Philippe Bouriez was President of Cora SAS
https://www.google.ru/#newwindow=1&tbs=li:1&q=Philippe Bouri...

So, at INSEAD they have multiple chairs sponsored by various companies (including Cora) while those who hold these positions are called 'XXX Chaired/Chair Professors'.
