Islamic Economics can be taken as an integrated science which is so considered in recent years based on codified methods for integration of bi-disciplinary. These methods that are used in accordance with integration of bi-disciplinary approach in global academic sessions, can be categorized as: Parallel Disciplinary Approach, Multi-Disciplinary Approach, and Supra/Trans-Disciplinary Approach. Nevertheless integrated approaches already drew attention of so many experts as the most designated basis of Islamic economics design model. But, there is a significant issue that is natural difference of Islam and economics as two integrated disciplines. So that economics is a human science while Islam is a divine religion. Therefore mentioned methods have not any compatibility in Islamic economics science and needs deep understanding of islamic concepts (power of Ijtihad) as the complementary element. From the point view of the method, this research based on approaches of bi-disciplinary integration, while tries to propose its analysis about necessity of deep understanding of Islam, proves that in spite of difference in difficulty level of applying those approaches, deep understanding of Islam in any approach is vital, and direct joining of these two disciplines is not possible unless to be done by an expert one and this expertise cannot be accomplished unless with Ijtihad, comprehending in religion and this issue can be applicable and possible with due to different level of exegesis in shia fighh.

In the past, philosophy of education and curriculum designing focused on specialization and single disciplinarity approach .But since the turn of the 20th century, by a vast literature of realizing real and new educational needs and competencies beyond a single discipline, and criticizing the limits of that narrow approach to the reality, defining integrated curriculum or non-disciplinarity approaches has been a topic of discussion .Over the last decades, theorists offered six basic categories for non-disciplinary works :Parallel Disciplinary Approach, Interdisciplinary Approach, Multi-Disciplinary Approach, Cross-Disciplinary Approach, Plural-Disciplinary Approach and Supra/Trans-Disciplinary Approach. Through these approaches, integration seemed to be a matter of degree and method from fundamentally different starting points. Economics also is essentially an integrated discipline from different social sciences, mathematics, economic subjects, knowledge and ideas, and even methodology of natural sciences, and inevitably, its curriculum, educational programs and courses can not be designed unless benefited from these literatures and approaches in the curriculum designing subject area. The present article briefly defines the non-disciplinarity approaches and shows their implications, applications and theoretical capacity in designing different possible curriculums and graduate educational courses in Economics
