Hi. 
"Region" is used for mainly for putting things into physical or geographic categories: "There are three grocery stores in the region north of the city."

"Part" as a noun is used to specify difference from the "whole":  "I liked the first part of that book."  "Money is usually held somewhere in the back part of a bank"

Both "area" and "field/field of study"  are sometimes used to mean "focus of study", but "field" is used mainly for traditional large distinctions made at the university level, while "area" can be used to separate focuses within a field.

So we have the "field" of economics, field of medicine, languages, mechanical engineering, finance),

But within financial services you might study "areas" such as issuing loans, credit assessment, transferring funds, investments, notarizing etc.
