Town Hall on Inter- and Transdisciplinarity at Trinity

Town Hall on Inter- and Transdisciplinarity at Trinity
Date: 9 May 2023
Time: 2 - 4:30 PM IST
Location: Trinity Long Room Hub Fellow Square Trinity College Dublin 2 Ireland

In April 2023, the League of European Research Universities (LERU) published a new paper, Implementing interdisciplinarity in research-intensive universities: good practices and challenges, examining progress on implementing interdisciplinarity among member universities since their 2016 position paper, Interdisciplinarity and the 21st century research-intensive university. The new report revisits recommendations, considers where progress has been made and where further changes are recommended. Members of the Horizon Europe SHAPE-ID project, led by Professor Jane Ohlmeyer, contributed to the new report.

This town hall, organised by Trinity Research and the Trinity Long Room Hub, is an occasion for members of the Trinity community to reflect on where Trinity has been successful in encouraging and supporting inter- and transdisciplinarity in research and education and consider where we can and should aim to improve. All members of the College community are invited to attend and contribute.
