Outline of academic disciplines

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

An academic discipline or field of study is a branch of knowledge that is taught and researched as part of higher education. A scholar's discipline is commonly defined and
recognized by the university faculties and learned societies to which he or she belongs and the academic journals in which he or she publishes research. However, no formal
criteria exist for defining an academic discipline.

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.

There is no consensus on how some academic disciplines should be classified (e.g., whether anthropology and linguistics are discipline of social sciences or fields within the
humanities). More generally, the proper criteria for organizing knowledge into disciplines are also open to debate.

The following outline is provided as an overview of and topical guide to academic disciplines.
