The idea for this course was borne out of the need for more interdisciplinary courses at the undergraduate level that would encourage students to adopt an interdisciplinary approach to learning while working in teams with students across different schools.

We understand and acknowledge that such kind of interdisciplinary courses can be created in many different ways. The goal for the 10 week internship was to create and showcase one form that an online, interdisciplinary course focused on the city of Edinburgh might take.
