(大学)評議会

"上院" will never fit this context. The University Senate refers to the university's 評議会. Kanazawa University has a glossary, and I think correspondence between University Senate and 評議会 is correct.

neutral Maynard Hogg : Google has far too few hits. ("only" 17,000) Japanese universities predominate.

agree KathyT : 東大 also uses 評議会 for their University Senate.

agree mstkwasa : 評議会 should be appropriate. The function, composition and competence of the "senate" differs from one institution to another in the UK, it is imperative to know which university is in question to be sure.
