Do pages with irrelevant keywords hurt the domain overall for ranking for relevant keywords?
I agree, potential students will likely be searching for specific degrees by academic field. The page that is optimized for "online degrees" will be the page that high schools, businesses, other universities and education portals will be linking to most often. When these programs are marketed the marketing materials could invite links to this specific page.
