Sustained Change: Institutionalizing Interdisciplinary Graduate Education

Maura Borrego, Daniel Boden and Lynita K. Newswander

The Journal of Higher Education, 2014, vol. 85, issue 6, 858-885

Abstract: We employ Scott's three pillars of institutions (regulative, normative, and cultural-cognitive) to investigate how higher education organizations change to support interdisciplinary graduate education. Using document analysis and case study approaches, we illustrate how strategies which address both policies and cultural norms are most successful.
