Anthropology is divided into four major sub-fields: 1) biological, 2) cultural, 3) linguistic, and 4) archaeology. Other branches of anthropology include medical anthropology, forensic anthropology, corporate anthropology, applied (or practical) anthropology, and public anthropology.
The four traditional fields of anthropology are cultural anthropology, physical (biological) anthropology, archaeology, and linguistic anthropology. Some individuals argue for the inclusion of a fifth field, applied anthropology, which applies anthropological methods and theories to real-world issues and problems in various contexts such as development, healthcare, and business. Applied anthropology seeks to address practical challenges using anthropological principles.
