Abstract: The paper proposes a transdisciplinary approach to knowledge integration within the knowledge-based society and economy (KBS/E), positioning universities as ideal spaces for the synergy of education, research, and industry. Emphasizing a “global village” perspective, it highlights the university’s role in fostering sustainable development by integrating diverse disciplines and deep research in specialized fields. Practical examples of transdisciplinary spaces include Technopolis centers, knowledge factories, and mobile mechatronic platforms, which serve as innovative clusters for knowledge creation, transfer, and application. The Knowledge Integration (KIM) paradigm underpins this process, enabling the efficient exploration of ideas and advancing expertise as wisdom and skills. This approach breaks traditional academic boundaries, encouraging rational debate, problem-solving, and lifelong learning in a sustainable, integrative framework.
