Dear Mohammad Ghaffari,
The exact meaning of word سرپرست is acting. I am 100% sure in your translation, it is meant acting head of private higher education institutions. Head only means ریس which does not convey the exact meaning and in-charge means مسوول which is also not needed in this text.

Asker: Thanks. My own rendering is Head the Dept of of Private Institutes of Higher Education, but it seems a little odd to me, so I thought maybe I can ask colleagues about that. What do you think, Irfan?

"Acting Chief" as suggested by Mr. Miakhel, or "Acting Head" is a better translation of سرپرست; however, the remainder of the phrase should be:

Acting Head of Private Institutions of Higher Education

Dear Mohammad Ghaffari,

Example sentence(s):
  • After resigning Mr Ahmad, it was difficult to find a suitable person for the position and the post was covered by his deputy as acting head of private higher education institutions.
