Integrating Multi-disciplinary Thinking into Curricula Facilitators: Dr. Matlock.…………...…Small Auditorium, Student Union The notion of interdisciplinary work is not new.

We have limited time and access to the students to create this rigor. The challenge of integrating knowledge landscapes from other disciplines is largely one of efficiency versus effectiveness. Sustainability creates a platform for engaging in discussions and exploration of knowledge across disciplines while enhancing the power of the home discipline in addressing complex, integrated problems.
