Casarosa, Vittore; Ruggieri, Salvatore; Salvatori, Enrica; Simi, Maria; Turbanti, Simona – Education for Information, 2020
Interdisciplinarity is becoming increasingly important in education. With the rapidly evolving job market, an interdisciplinary education can prepare students for the flexibility and broad knowledge base required to adapt. At the University of Pisa, we recognized the value of an interdisciplinary educational environment during our participation in…
