The theme of the fourth NIE-online edition is Arts-Science collaborations. Whereas in previous times these were almost separate fields, nowadays they are more in interaction with each other. Example are the developments of STEAM (STEM + Arts) and the use of creative and design methods in academic work. In this edition, we hope to gather insights in and best practices of the valuable role of the Arts in academic research, teaching and learning.

The National Interdisciplinary Education (NIE) Conference is an annual event for educators, researchers, policy makers, and students who are active in inter- and transdisciplinary programmes at Dutch universities, university colleges, and universities of applied science. We want to stay in touch and grow as a community of inter- and transdisciplinarians, and to exchange best practices and ideas. We therefore organize e a series of online meetups and seminars.
