The question is a bit general, so I will try to answer it two ways.
By area of study:
1. Biblical Theology. This is theological study drawn directly from The Bible.
2. Historical Theology. Studies theology with respect to Christian history.
3. Philosophical Theology. Studies theology with respect the philosophy or "reason".
4. Systematic Theology. Attempts to combine Biblical, Historical, and Philosophical Theology to make a "systematized" understanding of various subjects.
5. Practical Theology. Attempts to apply systematic theology to practical ministry. These might include education, missions, pastoral care, etc. B.
By subject.
Systematic Theology is broken up into several subjects. The number can vary, but here are ten to consider.
1. Theology Proper. The study of God.
2. Bibliology. The study of Bible
3. Christology. The study of Jesus Christ
4. Pneumatology. The study of the Holy Spirit.
5. Soterology. The study of salvation/redemption
6. Angeology. The study of angels (and demons)
7. Hamartiology/Theodicy. The study of sin and suffering.
8. Eschatology. The study of end times
9. Anthropology. The study of man
10. Ecclesiology. The study of the church There are other ways of categorizing Theology as well.
Another way would be Models of Theology. These might include Arminian, Calvinish, Postmodern/Emergent, Catholic, Liberation, Liberal, Neo-Orthodox, Orthodox, Pentecostal, Charismatic, etc. theologies.
The main branches of theology are systematic theology (which organizes beliefs into structured systems), biblical theology (which focuses on the Bible as the primary source), historical theology (which studies the development of theological beliefs over time), practical theology (which explores the application of beliefs in everyday life), and philosophical theology (which examines theological concepts through the lens of philosophy).

Christian theology is divided into the following four main branches:
Each of these branches may contain numerous sub branches.
The four tools for accurately arranging systematic theology are exegesis, biblical theology, historical theology, and contemporary theology. Exegesis involves interpreting individual biblical passages. Biblical theology examines themes across the entire Bible. Historical theology studies how Christian beliefs have developed over time. Contemporary theology applies these beliefs to current contexts.
The abbreviation for diploma in theology is "Dip. Theol."
A person who studies theology is called a theologian.
The concept of original sin is primarily found in Christian theology, particularly within Catholicism and some branches of Protestantism. It is not a universal concept across all religions or belief systems.
The result of excommunications in 1054 was the Great Schism, when the Eastern Orthodox Church and the Roman Catholic Church split. This schism created a permanent division between the Eastern and Western branches of Christianity, leading to differences in doctrine, theology, and church structure that persist to this day.
Fifty thousand billion!! With an addition several hundred including tribal religions.
Theology is known as the queen of sciences because it has been thought that the study of God, by definition the source of all truth, informed and illuminated all other branches of knowledge. In recent times, some have considered mathematics to be the queen of sciences.AnswerWhile a common world view today is that there is no direct link between science and theology, it is more reasonable to state that there is no direct link between true theology and pseudoscience or between pseudo-theology and true science. Where the theology is true and the science is accurate, there is no discontinuity between the two such that theology is the queen of sciences.
"Theology" is a noun.
