Abstract
In modern higher education, the development of students’ scientific creativity is regarded as a fundamental objective of pedagogical innovation. The increasing complexity of scientific knowledge and the interdisciplinary nature of contemporary research demand new educational approaches that go beyond traditional subject-based instruction. One of the most effective pedagogical strategies in this context is interdisciplinary integration, which enables students to synthesize knowledge, methods, and perspectives from different academic fields. This article examines the significance of interdisciplinary integration in fostering students’ scientific creativity. The study analyzes how integrative learning environments contribute to the development of scientific thinking, research motivation, and creative problem-solving skills. Based on theoretical analysis and pedagogical research findings, the paper argues that interdisciplinary integration enhances cognitive flexibility, methodological awareness, and the ability to generate original research ideas. The results highlight the importance of integrating disciplines in higher education curricula as a key condition for developing students’ scientific creativity and research competence.
