Bridging Computer Science and English Education: A Curriculum Approach to Interdisciplinary Research and Teaching

In response to globalization and the growing need for interdisciplinary talents, this paper proposes an innovative English curriculum approach to nurture interdisciplinary research and teaching in universities. By integrating industry-relevant themes, interdisciplinary project-based learning, and contextualized language instruction, the curriculum bridges the gap between traditional language education and the demands of interdisciplinary collaboration. Leveraging new technologies such as AI and VR, it creates immersive, interactive learning environments that enhance creativity, critical thinking, and cross-disciplinary communication. The paper highlights challenges in implementation, including the need for innovative pedagogical frameworks and interdisciplinary collaboration, and suggests future directions, such as longitudinal studies, to evaluate the curriculum's effectiveness. This approach not only prepares students for the modern workforce but also empowers educators to lead interdisciplinary research, fostering innovation in higher education.
