Cat McDowell (who knows ever so much more than I do about metadata standards)says -
Additional fields for ETDs have already been standardized and put into the DC template by NDLTD. The thesis.degree element has 4 qualifiers -name,level, discipline, and grantor. Anyway, the page below is awesome- it explains this addition element, how to use DC for ETDS (for dummies), has an XML example, and maps all these to numerical MARC fields...

That would probably be the best way to handle the extra ETD fields.
