Any word?

In English a lot of school subjects end in the suffix -ology which is a derivitive of the greek word logos which means “the study of.”

So common words using this example are: psychology (the study of mental processes and behavior), biology (the study of life), sociology (the study of social systems), oncology (the study of cancer), or kinesiology (the study of movement).

Hope this helped.
