Facilitating interdisciplinarity for life-long and life-wide learning at University College Cork image #1

University College Cork has made significant efforts to facilitate and support interdisciplinary research and teaching opportunities amongst academic staff. A major output of these endeavours is the University Wide Module in Sustainability, which is open to students, staff and the general public for interest or credit. Piloted in 2016, the module is now in its third year. For the first time in 2018, it is also being streamed to two locations in rural Ireland. This session will explore how sustainability can be advanced through interdisciplinarity, and how this can contribute to breaking down barriers between university and community.
