Mathieu Albert, PhD, is an Adjunct Professor in the Institute of Health Sciences Education at Æ»¹ûÒùÔº, Montreal, Canada. Mathieu holds a PhD in Sociology, a Master in Kinesiology, and a BA in Philosophy. Mathieu was previously with the Wilson Centre and the department of Psychiatry at the University of Toronto for 21 years. Mathieu’s work is located at the intersection of higher education studies and sociology of science and knowledge. Much of his work focuses on interdisciplinary, knowledge communication across academic disciplines, and research policy.

Most of Mathieu’s research for the last two decades has drawn on and developed Pierre Bourdieu’s concepts. He has authored or co-authored close to 50 articles in peer-reviewed journals, eight book chapters, received 17 peer-reviewed grants, and co-edited a volume on interdisciplinarity, titled Investigating Interdisciplinarities, published by Rutgers University Press (2017). In 2001, he received the Sheffield Award for the best paper published in the Canadian Journal of Higher Education, and in 2011, he received the Star-Nelkin Award from the American Sociological Association for his paper Boundary-Work in the Health Research Field: Biomedical and Clinician Scientists’ Perceptions of Social Science Research (Minerva, 2009). Mathieu was an elected member of the Science, Knowledge and Technology Section Council of the American Sociological Association from 2012 to 2015.

His current research explores interdisciplinarity within three research fields: medical education research, engineering education research, and higher education research. The goal is to comparatively explore how researchers trained outside these three education subfields integrate and engage in cross-disciplinary knowledge exchanges with colleagues trained and located within these subfields and the consequences for their research focus, practices and career.

Current research interests: interdisciplinarity, higher education, cross-disciplinary knowledge circulation, sociological theory.
