<institution> Institution Name

Name of an institution or organization (for example, a university or corporation).

Usage/Remarks

Common Practice

All levels of a multi-tier organization are typically listed within a single <institution> element. For example, a program, a department, and a university may be part of the same <institution>. Similarly both a corporation and a division within the corporation might be inside one <institution>. 
<institution content-type="edu">
 University of Frostbite Falls, Dept of Campus Security, 
 Dept of Moose and Squirrel Security, 
 Office of the Acting Dean</institution>
Alternatively, a divisional distinction such as an “organization” element with subordinate “dept” and an “office” inside a department could tagged using multiple <institution> elements with the @content-type attribute differentiating institution, department, and office: 
...
<institution content-type="edu">
 University of Frostbite Falls</institution>
<institution content-type="dept">
 Dept of Campus Security</institution>
<institution content-type="dept">
 Dept of Moose and Squirrel Security</institution>
<institution content-type="office">
 Office of the Acting Dean</institution>
...
As yet another alternative, the same distinction could tagged using multiple <named-content> elements: 
<institution content-type="edu">
 University of Frostbite Falls
 <named-content content-type="dept">Dept of Campus Security
 </named-content>
 <named-content content-type="dept">Dept of Moose and Squirrel
  Security</named-content>
 <named-content content-type="office">Office of the Acting Dean
 </named-content>
</institution>
Related Elements
The <institution> element holds only the name of the institution. To record an institutional identifier, such as a “Ringgold” or “ISNI” identifier, the element wrapper element <institution-wrap> should be used to hold both the institution name (<institution>) and the identifier (<institution-id>).
The elements used in an address may include the address class elements: <addr-line>, <city>, <country>, <fax>, <institution>, <institution-wrap>, <state>, <phone>, and <postal-code> and the address linking class elements: <email>, <ext-link>, and <uri>.
