Abstract
This article examines the role of interdisciplinary integration in enhancing students’ innovative potential, with a particular focus on the field of Information Technology. In contemporary education, the complexity of real-world problems necessitates the convergence of knowledge from multiple disciplines, enabling students to think critically, adapt flexibly, and generate creative solutions. The study explores how integrating IT with fields such as education, engineering, linguistics, and social sciences fosters a holistic learning environment that stimulates innovation. Through analysis of current pedagogical approaches, project-based learning models, and digital tools, the paper highlights the effectiveness of interdisciplinary strategies in developing problem-solving competencies and technological creativity among students. The findings suggest that interdisciplinary integration not only improves academic performance but also equips learners with the skills required for the rapidly evolving digital economy. Recommendations for curriculum design and instructional practices aimed at strengthening innovative capacity through IT-based interdisciplinary learning are also provided.
