Tales from the Academy: An Interdisciplinary Approach - a podcast by Alexander Shaun Tan

From the mini-series: Tales From The Academy, tune into Joel Li's story as a liberal arts student who studied Philosophy, Politics & Economics in YALE-NUS University. He talks about the value of an interdisciplinary approach and the unnecessary pressure for young people to find a specialization when studying. Through his experiences as a 'generalist,' we get to understand how much better we understand the world when we are able to connect seemingly disconnected topics.

Music Used: Just Like In The Movies (Instrumental Version) by Particle House; Memory by The Great Dane; Deep Inside You by Junsu
