>[!abstract] >The scholarship of integration, one of Ernest Boyer’s [[Boyer's model of scholarship|four dimensions of scholarship]], emphasizes making connections across disciplines, contexts, and ideas to generate new insights. Instead of advancing knowledge within a single field, it seeks to synthesize and interpret research in ways that reveal broader patterns, place findings in wider intellectual or social frameworks, and bridge academic silos. This form of scholarship values interdisciplinarity and translation, helping knowledge move across boundaries so it can inform both theory and practice. It reframes scholarship as not only discovery but also the weaving together of meaning across domains. >[!related] >- **North** (upstream): [[Boyer's model of scholarship]] >- **West** (similar): [[Nexialism]] >- **East** (different): — >- **South** (downstream): [[Polymath]]
