Tangible visions for the university of the futures – the What and the How: Interdisciplinary and international IDSA FOUNDING LAB Fellows collectively identify and unearth the fundamental questions about the bigger picture for pioneering higher education.
What is our understanding of academic disciplines and how do we shape them to investigate the problems of our times? What is the role of AI in shaping truth and knowledge? What is its impact on research and innovation? How can Art Thinking and scientific exploration merge into mutual inspiration and new models of thought and truth? The FOUNDING LAB Fellows present possible contradictions and diverse unifying angles that emerged during their deep dive IDSA FOUNDING LAB Forum discussions, giving a glimpse into their program perspectives for the IDAS FOUNDING LAB Fall Term.
