In general, an academic discipline or field
signifies an area of knowledge which is taught
at the College or at the University. Initially
titles of curriculum were linked in German
Universities during the 19th century. These
sciences were approved
and accepted in other
countries step by step in the beginning of
the 20th century. Consequently, they became
the
traditional standard subjects. Obviously,
these sciences included physics,
chemistry,
biology, geology, and astronomy, which are
nowadays considered to be the oldest academic
disciplines. Academic fields develop as a result
of discoveries or
explorations made in different
spheres of science. In fact, all o f them are
interrelated.
b. Academic disciplines can be categorized as
following:
social sciences, exact sciences,
natural sciences, humanities and applied
sciences.
Each discipline usually has
several sub-disciplines or branches, and the
differentiating boundaries o f these disciplines
are often
casual and indefinite. For example,
economics can be included in social sciences.
c. Uzbekistan has also a rich history in scientific
area. It has contributed to the development of
the world science. Significant scholars of the
state developed several new ideas in a veriety
o f academic fields.
d. The centers of the
ancient civilization were
discovered on the territory o f Uzbekistan
(Obirakhmat Grotto), where the most ancient
remains o f modern man were found. That
event became a “discovery of the year” in
Uzbekistan.
