Is there any way to have the Submit button send an email with the PDF form to a specific email address, based on a choice from a Drop Down list (ex: Department).

For example: 

Choose "Department X" from dropdown and when you hit Submit, it sends PDF form to Department X Head's email address

Yes, but this requires a script. You can read about it here (and there's an example that uses a list field, same as dropdown):
