About Our Project
The Interdisciplinary Studies Project is a multi-year research project at Project Zero, Harvard Graduate School of Education, funded by the Atlantic Philanthropies.
The project examines the challenges and opportunities of interdisciplinary (ID) work carried out by experts, faculty, and students in well recognized research and education contexts. Building on an empirical understanding of cognitive and social dimensions of interdisciplinary work, the project develops practical tools to guide quality interdisciplinary education.
In this site you will find a description of our studies, as well as a series of papers emerging from the projects' work which are available for download.
The Principal Investigators of the Interdisciplinary Studies Project are Veronica Boix Mansilla & Howard Gardner.
