There are many branches of science apart from the three most commonly known (Physics, Chemistry and Biology). Here is a (non-exhaustive) list of other branches of science:

  • Aerodynamics: the study of the motion of gas on objects and the forces created
  • Anatomy: the study of the structure and organization of living things
  • Anthropology: the study of human cultures both past and present
  • Archaeology: the study of the material remains of cultures
  • Astronomy: the study of celestial objects in the universe
  • Astrophysics: the study of the physics of the universe
  • Bacteriology: the study of bacteria in relation to disease
  • Biochemistry: the study of the organic chemistry of compounds and processes occurring in organisms
  • Biophysics: the application of theories and methods of the physical sciences to questions of biology
  • Biology: the science that studies living organisms
  • Botany: the scientific study of plant life
  • Chemical Engineering: the application of science, mathematics, and economics to the process of converting raw materials or chemicals into more useful or valuable forms
  • Chemistry: the science of matter and its interactions with energy and itself
  • Climatology: the study of climates and investigations of its phenomena and causes
  • Computer Science: the systematic study of computing systems and computation
  • Ecology: the study of how organisms interact with each other and their environment
  • Electronics: science and technology of electronic phenomena
  • Engineering: the practical application of science to commerce or industry
  • Entomology: the study of insects
  • Environmental Science: the science of the interactions between the physical, chemical, and biological components of the environment
  • Forestry: the science of studying and managing forests and plantations, and related natural resources
  • Genetics: the science of genes, heredity, and the variation of organisms
  • Geology: the science of the Earth, its structure, and history
  • Marine Biology: the study of animal and plant life within saltwater ecosystems
  • Mathematics: a science dealing with the logic of quantity and shape and arrangement
  • Medicine: the science concerned with maintaining health and restoring it by treating disease
  • Meteorology: study of the atmosphere that focuses on weather processes and forecasting
  • Microbiology: the study of microorganisms, including viruses, prokaryotes and simple eukaryotes
  • Mineralogy: the study of the chemistry, crystal structure, and physical (including optical) properties of minerals
  • Molecular Biology: the study of biology at a molecular level
  • Nuclear Physics: the branch of physics concerned with the nucleus of the atom
  • Neurology: the branch of medicine dealing with the nervous system and its disorders
  • Oceanography: study of the earth's oceans and their interlinked ecosystems and chemical and physical processes
  • Organic Chemistry: the branch of chemistry dedicated to the study of the structures, synthesis, and reactions of carbon-containing compounds
  • Ornithology: the study of birds
  • Paleontology: the study of life-forms existing in former geological time periods
  • Petrology: the geological and chemical study of rocks
  • Physics: the study of the behavior and properties of matter
  • Physiology: the study of the mechanical, physical, and biochemical functions of living organisms
  • Radiology: the branch of medicine dealing with the applications of radiant energy, including x-rays and radioisotopes
  • Seismology: the study of earthquakes and the movement of waves through the Earth
  • Taxonomy: the science of classification of animals and plants
  • Thermodynamics: the physics of energy, heat, work, entropy and the spontaneity of processes
