I am not quite sure I understand the question. Clearly strategy is under the major of Behavioral & Policy Sciences, so if you want to focus in organization studies, or entrepreneurship, this is the only applicable major.

MIT's grouping is a bit "non-standard," which is typical for the entire university. The best approach is to look at the faculty members' research and determine what fits best. My impression of the MIT people is that they don't necessarily enforce group boundary anyways. Have seen a few people from MIT who end up doing research cross boundary. But as far as admission is concerned, perhaps it's best to find the best match with your research interests.
