Chinese term

04級的年級主任

Chinese to English Other Education / Pedagogy University education
context: 南京理工大學光電信息工程04級的年級主任

What does 年級主任 mean and what is the English equivalent?

How do you express 04級 and 系86 in English?

I live in Taiwan and am not familiar with the school system in China. I am myself a 外語系95級 student and that means I would graduate in 1995. Does 04級 mean the same thing? And what does 系86 mean?

Thank you in advance!

Grade Supervisor of Year 2004

1)大陆学校的“级”与“届”有所不同:“级”是指入学年份,04级学生是指2004年入学的学生;而04届学生才是指2004年毕业的学生;所以您所说“外語系95級 student ”并不是指“ I would graduate in 1995”而是指在1995年入学的学生。
一般04级译为 Year 2004
2)主任一词根据不同所处行业等不同职务有不同的译法;学校内的主任有译为chairman 或 supervisor的。系主任可译为chairman of the department

Grade Director of Grade 2004

年級主任:Grade Director

I think 04级 shoud refer to "2004级". In China, this refers to the students admitted to the university in the year of 2004. The normal undergraduate programs are four years in China, which means the students in Grade 2004 will graduate from the university in 2008.

As such, 04級的年級主任 can translate as " Grade Director of Grade 2004"

As for 系86, I believe 86 refers to "1986", 系means "department". The actural meaning of 系86 would depend on the context.
