How are the departments in universities divided?
There is a college under the university, a department under the college, and several majors under the department.

Generally speaking, "college" is greater than "department" and "major".

In a university, there are two levels: college and department. The big one is called the hospital. The so-called "big" means that there are many majors, many students and large funds, and a major is set up in a college, such as accounting in a business school.

Learning culture is based on knowledge and its discipline (specialty)

Knowledge and its disciplines (majors) are the organizational basis for the existence of universities, the fundamental characteristics that distinguish universities from other social organizations, and the fundamental characteristics that distinguish university culture from other social organizations.

The fundamental characteristics of knowledge and its discipline (specialty) as the organizational basis determine two important characteristics of running a university:

First, from the inside, universities are required to focus on the future and explore the truth, become highly decentralized organisms, take cultural (academic) mechanism as the leading mechanism for their own operation, and take rationality and academic value as the basic values they pursue;

Secondly, from the external point of view, universities are required to take academic freedom as the source of their vitality and should enjoy higher autonomy than other sectors of society, and loose integration within university organizations is an important condition for their survival and development.
