I've seen "Department" in every design, and even reading the dictionary definition of "department" it still makes sense to this non-native: "a section of a retail store selling a particular class or kind of goods, ie, the sportswear department."
Just as a usage note, this is perfectly identical in American English. But the Ubuntu desktop already uses the term 'category' and "department" feels much more suited to a physical store. (Specifically a department store.)
So that may help explain why it feels a little out of place.
