is an urgent problem in the field of engineeringeducation.Purpose: This study took an ongoing and successful AI interdisciplinary certificationprogram as research object, and deconstructed the whole process of the program’ s design,implementation, and operation from three dimensions of vision, teaching, and support tosummarize its successful experience in the AI talents cultivation and interdisciplinaryeducation.Method: Adopting an exploratory case study methodology, we conducted semi-structuredinterviews with 5 instructors and professors involved in this program, and collected 10documented materials about the program from internal channels, official websites, andmainstream media to ensure the authenticity, richness, and completeness of the
approaches to enhancing programs and curricula.In this context, we argue that it is particularly important to conduct comparative internationalresearch to better understand how conceptualizations of interdisciplinary education are not onlydiscipline-dependent but also culturally and institutionally contingent. Such a comparative studycan help inform curricular design to foster students' understanding of global competence. As afirst step in such efforts, we used reflexive thematic analysis within a comparative case study[11], [30], [31] to identify interdisciplinary graduate students’ conceptualizations ofinterdisciplinary education at two universities, one in Finland and one the U.S. The researchquestion(s) associated with this work are the
