The age of splitters is over — now come the lumpers
The question
In which direction will our degree programmes evolve? Are we nearing the end of studies programmes as we know them?
Watch
Summary
New programmes will focus on interdisciplinary and transdisciplinary work. The era of splitting knowledge into ever narrower disciplines is ending; now is the time for bringing disciplines back together. In that sense, current degree programmes will gradually fade out and evolve into these new, more interdisciplinary and transdisciplinary programmes.
The age of the splitters is over. It’s now the age of the lumpers.
