About AAIDES
Bridging disciplines to create innovative educational experiences and foster global collaboration in learning
Our Foundation
The Association for the Advancement of Interdisciplinary Education Studies (AAIDES) was established to support scholarly conversations about interdisciplinary education within and across national and regional borders. We focus on the content, context, and process of education, with interdisciplinary approaches at our organizational and intellectual center.
