A brief description or a copy of the institution’s policy regarding interdisciplinary research:
Interdisciplinary, transdisciplinary or multidisciplinary research is key to many faculty on campus. Such programs and departments that cross boundaries are among the strongest and most popular with students. Examples include Environmental Studies, Critical Social Thought, International Relations, etc. Many tenured faculty are in these programs and departments. Interdisciplinary, transdisciplinary or multidisciplinary research, and integrative thinking, are fundamental to the institution as a whole. As such there is no need for a single written policy. All faculty and students are not just encouraged, but are pushed, to bridge the divides between the sciences, social sciences, humanities and arts to establish a more integrative framework for both exploring and understanding the world in which we live. The co-curricular centers (the Miller Worley Center for the Environment, Weissman Center for Leadership in the Liberal Arts, and McCullouch Center for Global Initiatives) were established to help academic programs, students, faculty, and staff to cross boundaries in all they do.
