theory-integrated discipline
A diferença entre "integrative studies" e "theory-integrated discipline" é que a primeira (também conhecida como "interdisciplinary studies") reúne várias disciplinas de uma forma abrangente, permitindo que os alunos "desenvolvam uma compreensão significativa das associações e influências complexas dentro de um determinado tópico." - https://www.edutopia.org/integrated-studies-introduction
Já a "disciplina integradora", conforme explicado no contexto atual, "permite a integração das teorias estudadas". Nesse sentido, penso que a melhor tradução seria "theory-integrated discipline":
"A theory-integrated discipline is characterised by students’ ability to create new knowledge from past knowledge. Thus, this leads to the concept of ‘cumulative learning’ (Myers, 2015). Cumulative learning then requires that students first comprehend the fundamental concepts before progressing to the next concepts, as these fundamental concepts will form foundations for future learning. This is because, in hierarchical knowledge structures of a discipline, present knowledge is considered and extended upon in order to build new knowledge. So in Life sciences, the cell theory maybe regarded as an example of such a hierarchal knowledge structure, since it contains basic and unifying ideas that describe the biological living things in Life sciences, as it states that:
- All living things are made up of cells
- The cells are basic units of life
- The cells are the smallest living thing in the body that can perform of functions of life
The cell theory organises the knowledge of living organisms within the subject as shown in the figure 1 below. So for cumulative learning to occur, it is important that PSTs must first understand the theory of cells, before they could begin to understand other complex knowledge about living organisms. So, deducing from the previous and this current section, we could then say that, Life sciences is a discipline that contains both hierarchal and horizontal structures of knowledge." - http://wiredspace.wits.ac.za/bitstream/handle/10539/25122/Ma...

: The problem with "theory-integrated discipline" is that it's not a common collocation in English (British)

Survey of theories and practices
They call it 'Disciplina integradora' because that's what came to mind and they had to call it something. Doesn't mean it was ever such a great name.
e.g.
CRM 331 PENOLOGY 3 SEM HRS.
This course provides a survey of theories and practices in penology and programs for the social treatment of criminals. The penal institutions in their physical, educational, and social aspects are discussed. The historical contexts and associated ideologies that gave rise to specific punishment policies, practices, and reforms are examined)

1. Science. 1977 Mar 25;195(4284):1289-93. The emergence of ecology as a new integrative discipline.
These sub-disciplines are Physical Geography (natural sciences) and Human Geography (social sciences). Based on the definition above Geography can be seen as trying to explain the relationship between the social and physical processes that occur in our world in the context of region and places.Feb 10, 2015

Anyway considering the question, the big issue would be the subject, IMO. I agree the term "discipline" would be a synonym for "area", not for a specific subject.
But in Australia, you never know. My brain thinks in American English, not British.
discipline: A branch of knowledge, typically one studied in higher education. Example:
‘sociology is a fairly new discipline’ https://en.oxforddictionaries.com/definition/discipline
disciplina: Área do conhecimento humano, esp. aquela que constitui matéria de ensino escolar http://www.aulete.com.br/disciplina
The original context states "bacharelado", hence it's higher learning and in my view it falls under the definition of "discipline". The Merriam-Webster Dictionary corroborates this definition.
