Abstract: The purpose of this essay is to reflect on the new perspectives of knowledge in epistemology and multidisciplinarity. This descriptive analysis focuses on the importance of epistemology in the validation of scientific knowledge considering its historical, social and psychological foundations. Epistemological dilemmas related to the nature of truth, justification and belief are decisive in understanding and evaluating knowledge. This discipline analyzes the methods and principles that guarantee the reliability of research knowledge. Multidisciplinary research integrates diverse epistemological approaches, from empiricism to pragmatism, to address complex problems, strengthening the generation of interdisciplinary learning. Ethics requires a commitment to principles such as respect, justice and beneficence, avoiding questionable practices and ensuring scientific rigor in research. In conclusion, epistemology validates scientific knowledge through justification, truth and belief, relying on theories such as empiricism and rationalism. Dynamic epistemic models guide research and facilitate the interpretation of phenomena. Multidisciplinarity enriches the study by integrating diverse methods, while ethics guarantees responsible practices, such as informed consent and integrity of results.
