Center for Interdisciplinary Studies

Description:

The Center for Interdisciplinary Studies (CIS) functions as an essential site and mechanism on the Tufts campus through and across which facilitation of interdisciplinary work occurs. The institutional structure provided by CIS encourages and initiates multidisciplinary dialogue and practicums necessary to the nurturance of new approaches to curriculum, pedagogy, research and outreach. Moreover, as ever-increasing interdisciplinary aims and innovations continue to thrive, and newly coalesce as, programs, CIS provides the unifying administration and leadership that drives the interdisciplinary impulse at Tufts.
