HE2RP uses a thematic
multi-disciplinary approach. This approach allows participants to become
totally immersed in the study of a single research topic, which they
explore from several perspectives--scientific, historical, technological
and literary. In this context, participants come to appreciate the
connections between subjects that are often taught only in unrelated
courses, thus achieving the goals of a liberal arts education. In turn,
the participants begin to experience the excitement of discovery and to
see the research topic as an important part of a larger, more complex
integrated system.
