Biography
An Academic Research Fellow at the Department of Science Education, University of Copenhagen (UCPH), Katrine Lindvig is part of the research project “Interdisciplinary education” that focuses on strengthening interdisciplinary teaching and education at UCPH. The project pinpoints the challenges and opportunities in interdisciplinary teaching as seen from the perspective of both educators and students. To boost the interdisciplinary teaching and education, didactic tools, courses, and consultancy services are developed throughout the project.
She holds an interdisciplinary BA and MA in Educational Studies and International Development Studies from Roskilde University. Prior to her work at UCPH, she has been part of research projects looking at interdisciplinary research and collaboration, hybrid qualifications in vocational education as well as the development of academic identity in new interdisciplinary university programmes.
Project
How is interdisciplinary research transformed into interdisciplinary educational programs – a case study at the University of Copenhagen
Though interdisciplinary education is now a priority for university managements and education policymakers, little attention has thus far been given to the actual process of creating interdisciplinary education and teaching. This study looks at the practical, didactical and pedagogical planning that happens between policymaking, output assessment and educational accreditation.
