Votes to reclassify question as PRO/non-PRO:
PRO (1): Ilse Ackerman
When entering new questions, KudoZ askers are given an opportunity* to classify the difficulty of their questions as 'easy' or 'pro'. If you feel a question marked 'easy' should actually be marked 'pro', and if you have earned more than 20 KudoZ points, you can click the "Vote PRO" button to recommend that change.
How to tell the difference between "easy" and "pro" questions:
An easy question is one that any bilingual person would be able to answer correctly. (Or in the case of monolingual questions, an easy question is one that any native speaker of the language would be able to answer correctly.)
A pro question is anything else... in other words, any question that requires knowledge or skills that are specialized (even slightly).
Another way to think of the difficulty levels is this: an easy question is one that deals with everyday conversation. A pro question is anything else.
When deciding between easy and pro, err on the side of pro. Most questions will be pro.
* Note: non-member askers are not given the option of entering 'pro' questions; the only way for their questions to be classified as 'pro' is for a ProZ.com member or members to re-classify it.

Comment: "Your suggestion was the one that most suited my context. Thank you very much. However, I find that "Office of the Vice President for Undergraduate Studies",which is an "adaptation" of your answer, gives a better idea of the whole thing.
I also want to thank all the other colleagues for their kind help.
Best Regards,
Katia Rangel"

Provost / Vice President of Undergraduate Studies
No Brasil, faculdade e universidade:
O Reitor é o administrador maior da instituição.
O Vice-Reitor substitui o Reitor.
O Pró-Reitor auxilia os incumbentes acima no exercício de suas funções.
Estados Unidos:
Faculdade: Reitor = Dean
Universidade: Reitor = President
Vice President
Pró-Reitor = Provost (administrative officer in any of various colleges and universities eho holds high rank sand is concerned with the curriculum, faculty, appointments. etc.)
Poderia ser também Vice President of Undergraduate Studies
Pró-reitoria = Provostship or Office of the Provost
See:
The Provost is the chief academic officer responsible to the President for the conduct, coordination and quality of the University's academic and research programs. Provost Robert L. Barchi was appointed to this position in February of 1999.
By far, the most important duty of the Provost is the maintenance of the academic standards of the University. This is largely accomplished through his leadership in establishing the quality of faculty appointments and promotions.
The Provost is also responsible to the President for the formulation and implementation of educational policy, acting through the deans and directors, the Deputy Provost, Associate Provost and vice provosts where appropriate.
The Provost also recommends to the President persons for appointment as department chairs, directors and deans.
Each of Penn's twelve deans report to the Provost. Additionally, the Provost has a number of offices which report to him including vice provosts and directors of centers and institutes. In this regard, the responsibilities of the Provost extend to areas including student life and major academic initiatives.
In addition, the Provost chairs a number of Councils which serve as advisory bodies on academic and budget issues.

Rosemary's explanation of the different offices was on target, but I choose this translation because reitoria refers to the office. College refers to the undergraduate level of study in the U.S..

Obrigada, Giovanna, tem razão no exemplo da UCLA acima. No último exemplo, de Fairmont, "Provost of the College" seria da universidade (college) inteira. No caso da graduação na USP?

prorectorate
Desculpe-me, mas a tradução para "dean" tem mais a ver com decanato do que pró-reitoria, o termo usado no Brasil. Decanato é usado, por exemplo, em Universidades da Alemanha.
E "college" seria mais apropriado para colegiado.
E "college" seria mais apropriado para colegiado.
