Morphology
administration = administer (semi-transparent) = administer + ation
Standard nominalization from 'administer'; the political sense 'period of office' is a conventionalized metonymy from the administration (those who administer) to their time in office.
Etymology
The word administration comes from old Latin parts ad- 'to' and ministrare 'serve'. That's why a president's administration is the period when the people who 'serve' are in charge — their time in office.
