In response to Sebastian's comment, just two examples from the UK:

"At Kent, American Studies can be studied with a focus on one of the three following main subject areas: Art & Film, History or Literature. The destination statistics below are derived from all of these combinations."
http://www.pml.ac.uk/pdf/Career Paths_v2.pdf
"I went to Cardiff University and studied medical molecular biology (basically a biochemistry degree with a focus on human disease) for the next 3 years (1997-2000)."
