Join Dr. Simon C. Riley (University of Edinburgh) as he explores how the Student-Led Individually Created Course (SLICC) framework can be a powerful tool for supporting interdisciplinary learning. In this talk, Dr. Riley will discuss how the SLICC framework is being used in multiple programs at the University of Edinburgh to support interdisciplinarity in education and research.
