Why interdisciplinary studies?

  1. Creativity often requires interdisciplinary knowledge.

  2. Immigrants to disciplines often make important contributions to their new field.

  3. Disciplinarians often commit errors which can be best detected by people familiar with two or more disciplines.

  4. Some worthwhile topics of research fall in the interstices among the traditional disciplines.

  5. Many intellectual, social, and practical problems require interdisciplinary approaches.

  6. Interdisciplinary knowledge and research serve to remind us of the unity-of-knowledge ideal.

  7. Interdisciplinarians enjoy greater flexibility in their research.

  8. More so than narrow disciplinarians, interdisciplinarians often treat themselves to the intellectual equivalent of traveling in new lands.

  9. Interdisciplinarians may help breach communication gaps in the modern academy, thereby helping to mobilize its enormous intellectual resources in the cause of greater social rationality and justice.

  10. By bridging fragmented disciplines, interdisciplinarians might play a role in the defense of academic freedom
