Einteilung (division), Kategorisierung (categorization)

From 'klassifizieren' (to classify), derived from 'Klasse' (class) + '-ifizieren' (a verbal suffix). The '-ung' suffix creates a noun.

Looks and sounds very much like 'classification'. A helpful rule: German nouns ending in '-ung' are always feminine (die).
