Tengo problemas para traducir Colleges, ya que hablan de colleges, escuelas y facultades

Florida International University (FIU) is a public research university with colleges and schools that offer bachelor’s, master’s and doctoral programs in fields such as business, engineering, and law to name but a few.

La Florida International University (FIU, por sus siglas en inglés) (Universidad Internacional de Florida) es una universidad pública de investigación que está conformada por “colleges” y escuelas que ofrecen programas de pregrado, maestría y doctorado en campos tales como negocios, ingeniería y derecho, por nombrar sólo algunos.

When entering new questions, KudoZ askers are given an opportunity* to classify the difficulty of their questions as 'easy' or 'pro'. If you feel a question marked 'easy' should actually be marked 'pro', and if you have earned more than 20 KudoZ points, you can click the "Vote PRO" button to recommend that change.

How to tell the difference between "easy" and "pro" questions:

An easy question is one that any bilingual person would be able to answer correctly. (Or in the case of monolingual questions, an easy question is one that any native speaker of the language would be able to answer correctly.)

A pro question is anything else... in other words, any question that requires knowledge or skills that are specialized (even slightly).

Another way to think of the difficulty levels is this: an easy question is one that deals with everyday conversation. A pro question is anything else.

When deciding between easy and pro, err on the side of pro. Most questions will be pro.

* Note: non-member askers are not given the option of entering 'pro' questions; the only way for their questions to be classified as 'pro' is for a ProZ.com member or members to re-classify it.

English term (edited): college

colegio universitario

Es como se traduce en documentos oficiales de las Naciones Unidas y de la Unión Europea:

- they must provide courses at the undergraduate and/or graduate level of higher education leading to a recognised qualification in their own country;
they may be called a ‘University’ or bear some other relevant name (e.g. ‘Polytechnic’, ‘College’, ‘Institute’, etc.
https://eur-lex.europa.eu/LexUriServ/LexUriServ.do?uri=OJ:C:...

- deben impartir cursos de enseñanza superior de nivel de grado medio y/o superior encaminados a la obtención de un título reconocido en su propio
país; pueden llamarse «universidad» o llevar otro nombre pertinente (por ejemplo «escuela politécnica», «colegio universitario», «instituto», etc.)

Escuelas y facultades

En este contexto se habla de la subdivision de la universidad en escuelas y facultades. Y al leer el parrafo, entendemos que al decir escuelas (que ofrecen programas de pregrado...) no nos referimos a escuelas primarias ni secundarias, asi que con decir escuelas y facultades basta.
Example sentence:

conformada por escuelas y facultades que ofrecen...
