Thus, it seems difficult to find "one" subdivision that will always work worldwide ?! :-) Maybe that we should keep a generic word and allow everything in it (like subdivision=* with the name of "School", "Institute", "College",... if relevant) ?
I agree the various terms I've seen (faculty, department, school, college, institute, program(me), division, educational unit) don't seem to line up worldwide or even within some small regions. A generic term, with the site-specific term listed as part of the name=* tag, seems like a good solution. I'd probably be happier with department or division as the generic term, but subdivision might work. (In discussions like these I can't help thinking about the various proposals for a unifying education=* tag, and how that might affect the tagging of sort of hierarchy. The most recent one, currently "under way", is https://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Proposed_Features/Education_Reform_Alternative .)
