What it is about
Most complex fields of studies are best approached by combining the strengths of different research disciplines. However, entering an interdisciplinary collaboration can be overwhelming, as collaboration partners often have different criteria for data and focus as well as different strengths and shortcomings. Therefore, all phases of an interdisciplinary collaboration from project planning to publication must include a much higher degree of communication, data exchange and trust than classic monodisciplinary collaborations.
The course will include presentations from researchers from different research disciplines presenting examples of interdisciplinary research collaborations, followed by facilitated discussions.
Through case studies and group work, students will learn how to analyse data from different research disciplines and engage in an interdisciplinary discussion about their findings. Students will be discussing the optimal conditions of all phases of collaboration and pitfalls that may arise. Finally, best ways of publishing and funding interdisciplinary projects will be discussed.
Participation in the course will be rewarded with 2 ECTS points upon completion.
