Usage Note
Disciplina covers both the sense of self-control or orderly conduct and an academic or professional field (una disciplina científica). The verb disciplinar ('to discipline') and adjective disciplinado ('disciplined') share the root. In school contexts, disciplina can refer to classroom order — a sense that overlaps with but differs from asignatura (a specific course subject).
Examples
"La disciplina es clave para el éxito."
