Hence, there was an urgent need for the so-called Interdisciplinary Research to keep pace with the needs of society and the requirements of development, to constitute a fertile field for researchers in the modern era, because of the importance it represents for studying the various phenomena of society, and its complex issues and problems that need to cross barriers and cognitive constraints between the social and natural sciences.

Therefore, the trend towards inter-studies will contribute to expanding the circle of educational research as it relies on knowledge interaction, not an end in itself, but a means to support research efforts to confront societal problems, and to promote a competitive environment, through which knowledge can be obtained through the integration and formulation of new research fields. Accordingly, this paper seeks to demonstrate the importance of interdisciplinary studies in current educational research by asking the following questions:
