The Challenges of Interdisciplinary Research in the Social Sciences


The originally scheduled date in January had to be cancelled -IF it gets rescheduled details will be here.


This day-long workshop will enable students to think critically about interdisciplinarity across the social sciences. It will focus on the translation of knowledge and practices across the boundaries of research communities. It will engage students to think about the epistemological issues and also various methodological and practical issues involved in undertaking interdisciplinary research. It will allow them to be exposed to, and assess, not only the rewards but also the pitfalls of engaging in interdisciplinary research, and also best strategies on how to minimize or avoid the latter.
