Podrías decir también "junta de administración", pero si se trata de una institución escolar, académica o universitaria, "consejo de administración" me parece lo más adecuado y simple.

Saludos cordiales.

neutral  Rebecca Jowers: Hi, John. In many Spanish-speaking jurisdictions, "consejo de administración" is the term used to refer to a corporation's "board of directors," while "patronato" most commonly denotes an educational institution's "board of trustees."
