German term or phrase: Kreditierungsbereich
The word is on a degree transcript and is used as follows:
"Im Kreditierungsbereich (Studienschwerpunkt) wurden folgende Leistungen erbracht..."
Might it be "major" or "core subjects/area" or "subjects for which credit is received"? It is distinct from the supplementary part of the degree.
