According to the University of South Carolina Editorial Style Guide:

All conferred and traditional, educational, occupational, and business titles when used specifically in front of the name; do not capitalize these titles when they follow the name.

President Harris Pastides, University of South Carolina

Les Sternberg, dean

Professor T.S. Sudarshan is chair of the Department of Electrical Engineering.

Note: In tabular matter and addresses, these titles may be capitalized regardless of location.

Exception: When a word such as former is used in conjunction with a title and name, the title does not get capitalized, as it is considered part of a compound adjective (i.e. former president Andrew A. Sorensen).
