The Integration of the Humanities and Arts with Sciences, Engineering, and Medicine in Higher Education

The National Academies of Sciences, Engineering, and Medicine have released the report, The Integration of the Humanities and Arts with Sciences, Engineering, and Medicine in Higher Education. This report examines the evidence behind the assertion that educational programs that mutually integrate learning experiences in the humanities and arts with science, technology, engineering, mathematics, and medicine (STEMM) lead to improved educational and career outcomes for undergraduate and graduate students. It explores evidence regarding the value of integrating more STEMM curricula and labs into the academic programs of students majoring in the humanities and arts and evidence regarding the value of integrating curricula and experiences in the arts and humanities into college and university STEMM education programs.
