A Chancellor is the head of a university. Other titles are sometimes used, such as President or Rector. In most Commonwealth (or former Commonwealth) nations, the Chancellor is usually a titular (figurehead) non-resident head, often with a Pro-Chancellor as practical Chairman of the governing body; the actual chief executive of a university is the Vice-Chancellor.

  • A Chancellor is the head of a university. Other titles are sometimes used, such as President or Rector. In most Commonwealth (or former Commonwealth) nations, the Chancellor is usually a titular (figurehead) non-resident head, often with a Pro-Chancellor as practical Chairman of the governing body; the actual chief executive of a university is the Vice-Chancellor. In other countries, as for example Spain, they are sometimes styled "Great Chancellor"(Gran Canciller), and are also titular figures. In these countries, the rector is usually the administrative and educational head of a university.
  • Le chancelier d'une université est un dignitaire honoraire qui occupe principalement des fonctions de représentation et qui est nommé pour un mandat d'une durée limitée et renouvelable. Ce terme est surtout utilisé au Canada, à Hong Kong, en Inde, en Irlande, aux États-Unis, en Australie ou aux Philippines. Dans d'autres pays, le principal responsable d'une université porte le nom de président, principal, recteur ou provost. Dans de nombreux pays du Commonwealth, le chancelier a un role principalement honorifique. C'est alors le vice-chancelier qui est vraiment le responsable de l'université.
