University transdisciplinarity of the XXI century

Abstract

The deployment of a transdisciplinary university education becomes a condition for the transformation and strengthening of the university in the 21st century. Transdisciplinarity and university education have a similar principle and rationale, both have tried to correct the fragmentation of knowledge that induces the disciplinary organization of the university, have gone beyond the disciplines in their order with the development that today's society needs. It is common that some educational peculiarities that have had and have a lot of weight in the university structures have postponed their original vocation and have taken curricular approaches that have involved in adding various disciplines without integration or without spreading, which has had a negative result for the thorough fulfillment of the mission of the university. From its origins, its mission has been the study of the universal and of the integral human being, not parceled and in context. For all the above, in order to strengthen the university in our day, a transdisciplinary education is required, so this study has the intention of examining Transdisciplinarity in the contour of university education, as a process that allows decollating the fragmentary vision they present Currently the main functions of the University.
