A “department” in Scholarly can be much more than just a department. It can be a college, department, campus location, sub-department, or unit.
Departments are organized in a tree structure, with each department optionally having a parent and 0 or more children. Departments without a parent are labeled as “root” departments.
By default, this endpoint returns only root departments. Pass filter[flat]=true to return a flat list of all departments
(including children), which is useful for quick lookups by name or external ID.
