Outline of Academic Disciplines

Outline of academic disciplines

An academic discipline or field of study is a branch of knowledge,
taught and researched as part of higher education. A scholar's
discipline is commonly defined by the university faculties and
learned societies to which they belong and the academic journals
in which they publish research.
Disciplines vary between well-established ones that exist in

almost all universities and have well-defined rosters of journals
and conferences, and nascent ones supported by only a few
universities and publications. A discipline may have branches,
and these are often called sub-disciplines.
The following outline is provided as an overview of and topical

Collage of images representing
guide to academic disciplines. In each case an entry at the highest
different academic disciplines
level of the hierarchy (e.g., Humanities) is a group of broadly
similar disciplines; an entry at the next highest level (e.g., Music)
is a discipline having some degree of autonomy and being the
basic identity felt by its scholars; and lower levels of the hierarchy are sub-disciplines not normally
having any role in the structure of the university's governance.
