Since 2015, Ed Balleisen has led the university’s efforts to advance interdisciplinarity, partnering with academic leaders across campus. We asked him to reflect on what makes Duke’s interdisciplinary approach distinctive.

Provost Alec D. Gallimore has appointed a committee to lead the search for Duke University’s next vice provost for interdisciplinary programs. The position description is located on the website of the Office of the Provost.
