This research aims to promote and develop skills and strategies for managing, locating, searching and evaluating information, to take students to a closer insight of their own experiences in the construction of knowledge, based on an interdisciplinary project through project-based learning and collaborative learning. It was held at the University Center of Art, Architecture and Design of the University of Guadalajara with students from the Graphic Communication Design, Industrial Design and Design, Art and Interactive Technologies majors. It was carried out through applied research with a quasi-experimental method, because groups from the three before mentioned careers participated, and the participants were not randomly selected due to the previously made groups. The findings and reflections are related to the application of theoretical knowledge and technical skills of each discipline to carry out complex projects. The learning of the students allowed them to collaborate and participate with experiences beyond their disciplinary field, and led them to understand that it is convenient to share scenarios in the development of interdisciplinary projects during their professional activity.
