Inter-disciplinary
From Wikipedia: involves the combining of two or more academic fields into one single discipline.

Trans-disciplinary
From Wikipedia: connotes a research strategy that crosses many disciplinary boundaries to create a holistic approach.( For example of a similar term such as ethnography, a field research method originally developed in anthropology but now widely used by other disciplines.)

Qualitative Research
From Wikipedia: aim to gather an in-depth understanding of human behavior and the reasons that govern such behavior.

Ethnography Research
From Wikipedia: is a qualitative method aimed to learn and understand cultural phenomena which reflect the knowledge and system of meanings guiding the life of a cultural group.
