(Master of Arts) derives its name from the Faculty of Arts, while the degree of Doctor Philosophiae (Doctor of Philosophy) derives its name from the Faculty of Philosophy, German name of the same faculty. Whether called ''Faculty of Arts'' or ''Faculty of Philosophy'', it taught a range of subjects with general and fundamental applicability. The higher ''Faculty of Law'' and ''Faculty of Medicine'' were intended, much like today, for specialized education required for professions. The ''Faculty of Theology'' was the most prestigious, as well as least common in the first 500 years—and generally one that popes sought most to control. Although also "professional" education for clergy, theology (until the Enlightenment) was also seen as the ultimate subject at universities, named "The Queen of the Sciences", and often set the example for the other faculties. The number of faculties has usually multiplied in modern universities, both through subdivisions of the traditional four faculties and through the absorption of academic disciplines that developed within originally vocational schools, in areas such as engineering or agriculture.
