“Current traditions in graduate training make it extremely difficult forstudents to acquire a formal education in cross- disciplinary research. Thetendency is for students to focus on the specific techniques and narrowresearch goals of the laboratory in which they work.”

Opinions on What Interdisciplinarity Requires
Effective administration includes Centralized leadership Faculty input & joint appointments of full-time faculty
“Responsibility is in the hands of an appropriate leader(s), rather than being dispersed across units whose primary loyalties are to their disciplines”
(Association for Integrative Studies for AUCC)
