This book highlights models for promoting interdisciplinary
thinking and an appreciation for interdisciplinary understanding
among students in STEM-related fields. Students majoring in
science, technology, engineering, and mathematics often perceive
that courses in their major are not related to the general
education liberal arts courses required for their degrees. This
separation prevents the transfer of skills between their general
education courses and their degree pursuits. The false dichotomy is
particularly important because solving the daunting challenges of
the twenty-first century-such as drug-resistant bacteria, scarcity
of natural resources, and climate change-requires global citizens
armed with robust, complex abilities who can integrate
interdisciplinary concepts with bold technologies. Contributors to
this book explore ways in which this dichotomy can be overcome.
