| Inhalt | Inter- and transdisciplinary collaboration are essential prerequisites to scientifically analyse and effectively tackle complex real-world problems, such as sustainability challenges. However, what is meant by inter- and transdisciplinarity, and how and with which approaches can interdisciplinary research be conducted? In the first (theoretical) part, the lecture introduces different forms, methods, challenges as well as requirements of interdisciplinarity (and transdisciplinarity), with a specific focus on questions of interdisciplinary research in sustainability sciences. In the second (practical) part, we discuss two established tools of interdisciplinary research in sustainability sciences: system analysis and sustainability assessment. Guest lectures will share their personal experiences with interdisciplinary collaboration in science. In the third (reflexive) part, we round up the lecture series with a critical reflection upon contributions of science to the transformation towards sustainable development. The lecture series requires active participation through small practical exercises. |
| Lernziele | Students will: - get acquainted with the rational, forms, challenges as well as requirements of inter- and transdisciplinarity; - get to know different methods and approaches of interdisciplinary research; - be able to understand and basically apply relevant tools of interdisciplinary research in sustainability sciences, such as system analysis and sustainability assessment. |
