Abstract
This paper investigates the challenges and drivers of interdisciplinary scholarship and education within modern universities. The authors propose that shared purpose, practice, and place are the primary factors fostering "undisciplinary" research, challenging traditional disciplinary boundaries. Through workshops and a case study of an experimental center, the research highlights the importance of broad intent and flexible interactions in achieving meaningful interdisciplinary collaboration.
