The Interdisciplinary Studies and Research Center is a recently created Institute, but with a ten-year history.

It has two graduate programs: Master’s Degree in Cultural Development and Promotion and Doctoral Degree in Sciences and Humanities for Interdisciplinary Development.

Our intention is to contribute to reflection, the generation of knowledge and the construction of a critical mass. We want to influence social changes of transcendence from the perspective of complex systems and interdisciplinary research. For this, we use technologies in virtual platforms and we intend to develop a collaborative network for the formation of emerging communities of knowledge as forms of collective and distributed intelligence.

CALL FOR APPLICATIONS
