Gestaltencipher

(Note: If the below maps appear blurry, click on them and they will show up clearly.)

The gestaltencipher is a scale invariant fractal mind map, that allows coarse or fine grained magnification of the structure of knowledge, and incorporates several layers that we can toggle back and forth between: (1) actual phenomena or "problem areas" and the gestalt of the predicament addressed (2) academic themes, disciplines, and paradigms, presented as comprehensively as possible, (3) the locally available academic degrees and programs, and (4) exemplary individuals, the unique gestalten they embody, and who provide a perspective on the predicaments, thus closing the loop.

The first layer provides "phenomena-based gestalten", for example global issues: 

Layer 1: phenomena (source)

The second layer provides academic disciplines that address these:

Layer 2: Academic disciplines

The third layer are the corresponding locally available degrees and programs: 

Layer 3: Academic degrees and certifications at UAF

And the fourth layer are exemplars, individuals who embody a unique gestalt, here are a few examples:
