The complexity of relationship between nature and society has led to the emergence of interdisciplinary research. Interdisciplinary is a process of answering a complexity of question of the society through amalgamation of knowledge from different streams through academic disciplines. Interactions between humans and their natural environments has led to many global challenges related to water, forest, air, urbanization, waste management and others. These global challenges demand the exploration of the problem with the interfaces of various disciplines. These interfaces can be in the form of borrowing concepts, models, approaches, theories, tools and others. As the purpose of research is to find solutions to the problems, it demands the problem-oriented collaboration that increases the relevance of interdisciplinary approach. This unification of various academic disciplines has also led to emergence of new inter-discipline like geo politics, nanoscience and others. In Social sciences we observe this in the amalgamation of various disciplines such as Economics, Political Science, Sociology, Psychology, etc.
This helps us to be more critical in our thinking and creative in problem solving. Hence this paper put forth that interdisciplinary approach enriches the growth and sustainability of every academic discipline and also leads to the emergence of new disciplines such as Public Policy that offers effective solutions to the issues boggling the society. The study of public policy must be interdisciplinary in focus, because public programs and public policy problems are complex and they transcend beyond the understanding of any single discipline. As Laswell states ‘Policy Sciences’ is a framework to set the process of comprehensive, integrated understanding concerned with policy. This integrated understanding requires an interdisciplinary approach to formulate policy design and execution to deal with the complex problems of our Society.
