Work in Progress: Building Bridges Between Multidisciplinary STEAM Researches

The research explores the interaction between art and science, focusing on its strategic management in university research groups in Peru. From the perspective of STEAM Education, we study how the integration of science, technology, engineering, art, and mathematics fosters innovation and critical thinking. Adopting a socio-constructivist and qualitative approach, this research is based on a multiple case analysis, using semi-structured interviews and documentary review. This approach allows for a deep understanding of the dynamics and challenges in interdisciplinary collaboration, to identify crucial factors that facilitate or impede synergy between these disciplines. The investigation aspires to discover and propose effective practices and tools to reinforce artistic-scientific collaboration, promoting an innovative and creative approach in research and higher education, in line with the demands and challenges of the 21st century.
