The objectives of the Interdisciplinary Mission
1) To share a global approach to interdisciplinarity adapted to AMU, by creating synergies between transformative projects and interdisciplinary strategy,
2) To remove structural obstacles to interdisciplinarity by implementing specific proactive actions and an integrated approach, by experimenting with facilitating and encouraging practices,
3) Provide concrete support for the implementation of interdisciplinary projects, in particular by exploring specific areas linking science and society, and by defining milestones and tools for evaluating and measuring the impact of interdisciplinary integration,
4) Capitalize, model, enhance and disseminate good practices within AMU and among our partners.
