University, Three

 
 
 
Universities differ from other kinds of higher education institutions mainly in the wider range of subject matter they offer. These include science (physics, chemistry, geology, biology, astronomy), social science (anthropology, psychology, sociology, economics), the humanities (history, philosophy, literature, languages), the creative arts (painting, music, dance, drama), and more.
