    <content type="html">&lt;p&gt;Looks like the MBA co-typing was because somebody had entered it in the "Major/Field of Study" field, rather than "Degree" when filling out the form.  I've corrected that, and double-checked that there are no more topics with both types.

    <content type="html">&lt;p&gt;Field of study is applied at the individual level.  E.g., when adding a person's education (or a school's graduates), you can specify both the degree and the field of study.  I'm not sure that there's a whole lot of additional value to be gotten from adding field of study as a property on degree. Would the idea be to list all the possible fields of study for any given degree?
