A study group is a small group of people who regularly meet to discuss shared fields of study. These groups can be found found in high school and college settings and within companies. Professional advancement organizations also may encourage study groups.

Each group is unique and draws on the backgrounds and abilities of its members to determine the material that will be covered. Often, a leader who is not actively studying the material will direct group activities.

Typical college level academic groups include 5-20 students and an administrator or tutor drawn from the graduate program. Professional groups are often smaller.
