You could refer to it as a degree in Home Economics for Urban settings or application
(the distinction here is likely not inclusive farm work, or the like)

: I thought this was bizarre, until I looked on Linguee and found it used rather commonly. (I never heard of such a thing; to me home ec was learned in junior high school--but that was 50 years ago).

urban household management
Just an idea - this term (well, without "urban") came up in a novel about the 1940's in London I'm reading. May be a bit dated, of course.
