Launch of Interdisciplinary DAY
A big first for the Graduate Program
On Saturday, February 24, thefirst edition of its official day dedicated to interdisciplinarity took place: Interdisciplinary Day!
We were honored to have the President of the University of Montpellier, Mr. Philippe Augé, attend the opening of the event. The aim of the event was to bring together a large part of the IDIL community on the same day in order to strengthen interdisciplinary ties between our students.
The event program was divided into three main parts:
- A presentation of the two mirrored theses by our IDIL doctoral students and their thesis co-supervisors in TedX format.
- Presentation of five multidisciplinary projects by our M2 students
- Two interdisciplinary discussions between our students as part of the IDIL House Cup, supervised by international researchers from the Mak'it Institute (name the researchers). The two discussion topics? "AI and its impact on different disciplinary fields" | "The IPCC as an effective model of interdisciplinarity?"
And of course, in the middle of this busy day, a convivial buffet with wooden games brought the participants together for a friendly moment!
We would like to sincerely thank the students for their significant contributions to the event, our project leaders Agnès-Fichard Carroll and Mathieu Sicard, as well as the logistics teams who made this possible.
We will soon be posting dedicated articles highlighting our students who volunteered to participate in our interdisciplinary discussions and who had the unique experience of being able to exchange ideas on stage in front of a panel of renowned international researchers. Feel free to check them out!
