Perhaps another way to think about it is that LevelUp is only doing what every state university does, they're dividing up their school into various sorts of divisions by grouping subject areas. Humanities, Liberal Arts, Business and on and on. You can make the divisions as few or as many as you like. I've never worked in Higher Education but I imagine that these divisions serve primarily administrative purposes. I don't think that there's anything about Sociology that requires Anthropology to be just down the hall. But as an organization, the university has an easier time of it if they're grouped together. One of the things that some schools are doing is they're including on the departmental websites some type of listing or discussion of the sorts of jobs that one might seek once the degree is earned. I think it's fair to highlight the fact that in today's world there's some increased expectation that a degree will lead the newly minted graduate to some type of career. There's nothing wrong with dividing up degrees into categories. Check out Don McMillan's way of dividing them up
