The program was operationalized through systemic and complementary integration during sensitization meetings, pedagogical meetings, and socialization meetings, as well as feedback sessions. The program revealed that: a) managers, professors, and students must be focused and committed to understand and realize the consequences of the Cartesian paradigm, as well as the relevance of the complexity paradigm foundations, in the implementation of programs concerning interdisciplinarity; b) interdisciplinarity identifies and designates a possible mediation between knowledge and skills, ensuring a creative interaction with differences, as noticed in the identification of shared themes and concepts; and c) the interdisciplinary practice represents a pedagogical [...]
