IDEAS REVOLUTION
As the challenges before us become
even more complex, dynamic and
networked, people with the capability to
conceive of jobs that do not yet exist and to
work with and across disciplines, become
highly prized as agents to envision and
enact change.
Our vision at UTS’s Faculty of
Transdisciplinary Innovation (FTDi) is to
advance learning beyond the traditions
of the disciplines, push boundaries
and explore how we work in terms of
transdisciplinarity to create new solutions
for a future world.
We offer a unique style of learning with
the opportunity to engage in collaborative
learning across disciplines, work on real
briefs from our industry partners and to
connect with real local, national and global
start up culture.
Our courses are based on extensive
research into the future economy and
consultation with industry ensuring that
you gain the adaptability, resilience,
entrepreneurial spirit and creative thinking
that’s required to thrive. Transdisciplinary
skills are increasingly being seen as
necessary in the jobs of the future, and
demanded by employers as a key
graduate capability.
In forming the Faculty, UTS has taken the
lead in educating the next generation of
remarkable people to lead change in what
we already recognise is a new industrial
revolution... in fact a new technological
revolution, a revolution of work, ideas and
of course education.
