Division and Department

Can anyone tell me if Division and Departments the same ?
  

Top answer

They are different terms for structural elements of an organization. It depends on the situation, but commercial companies can have a few divisions composed of many departments. However, in the US government, we have the Department of Defense, the Department of Education, the Department of the Treasury and so on.
