Abstract

This article explores the role of interdisciplinary integration in developing essential 21st-century universal competencies such as critical thinking, creativity, collaboration, communication, and digital literacy. It discusses how connecting knowledge across disciplines fosters deeper understanding, promotes real-world problem-solving, and prepares students to function effectively in complex, globalized contexts. The paper also presents practical strategies for implementing interdisciplinary teaching to achieve holistic educational goals.
