Begriff – Forum for Interdisciplinary Studies is a student driven organisation established to promote, and facilitate student interaction across university institutions and academic disciplines Begriff was founded by a group of university students who wish to underscore and explore the interdisciplinary, and multifaceted nature of that wich concerns them in their field of study. Whether it is medicine, architecture, sociology, engineering or philosophy: every field – in one (suprising) way or another – tend to overlap. We, the team behind Begriff, believe that students from all disciplines within all forms of higher education can benefit intellectually, and often practically, from exploring common ground, together, and with different perspectives. Throughout 2012 Begriff aims to develop a strong community and forum for interdisciplinary activities and welcomes everyone who are eager to challenge and contextualise their immediate area of academic expertise. Our team is primarily anchored at the University of Copenhagen, the Technical University of Denmark, and Copenhagen Business School, so, if you are studying architecture, design, IT, art or any other form of higher education, and think that your institution/student network could benefit from joining an interdisciplinary forum, we would be pleased to hear from you at info@begriff.dk
We at Begriff hope to see a large variety of students, from several academic disciplines, use Begriff as a point of departure when they seek to engage in stimulating interdisciplinary collaborations and knowledge sharing. Please feel free to join and share your perspective
Begriff will be launching a website at www.begriff.dk
