Arcane Discoveries are in Ultimate Magic on page 86.
A wizard can learn an arcane discovery in place of a regular feat or wizard bonus feat.
Some Arcane Discoveries require a certain wizard level to learn. For example, Opposition Research states "You must be at least a 9th-level wizard to select this discovery."
Eldritch Knight is in the core book on page 384.
Diverse Training: An eldritch knight adds his level to any levels of fighter he might have for the purpose of meeting the prerequisites for feats (if he has no fighter levels, treat his eldritch knight levels as levels of fighter). He also adds his level to any levels in an arcane spellcasting class for the purpose of meeting the prerequisites for feats.
Does an Eldritch Knight's Diverse Training apply to Arcane Discoveries ?
For example, could a Fighter 1/Wizard 8/EK 2 use his 11th level feat to learn the Arcane Discovery "Opposition Research" ?
No it does not as it is a newer rule and is not covered. DT only covers the fighter end of feat requirements not the wizard end. Your GM might allow it however.

Gods above I need to be more awake before I reply to things. You are correct It would count.
I was concerned that an Arcane Discovery, despite being chosen in place of a feat, isn't really a feat and thus may not be affected by Diverse Training.
