It aims to identify, analyze and understand the interdisciplinary relationships between Communication Science and Information Science through its scientific production. Specifically: to seek the foundations in the literature on science, to understand the forms of knowledge, the conceptualization of the word "science" and to present the perspective of the complexity of science based on Edgar Morin; It also presents the ethos of science and the modes of production of scientific knowledge; Performs a bibliographic review on relations between disciplines, focusing on interdisciplinarity; Reflects on the potential of the use of bibliometric and scientometric methods to study interdisciplinary relationships between sciences; Identifies in the literature of the area of Communication Science and Information Science the discourses on interdisciplinarity in order to propose categories of analysis and to understand possibilities of joint action; Identifies relations between Communication Science and Information Science through the analysis of international scientific production, providing a global view of interdisciplinarity in the areas. This research, of a basic nature, will approach the theme qualitatively and quantitatively, being characterized as exploratory and descriptive. Bibliometric and scientometric methods were used to identify relations between the Science of Communication and the Science of Information. A search strategy was carried out at the Scopus database, in which 438 articles from authors affiliated to the communication and information institutions were identified. From these articles the communication and information faculties and other areas in which the authors of these areas published jointly (co-authorship) were extracted from these articles. It was possible to propose categories of interdisciplinary analysis in order to understand the relations between the CC and CI fields. In addition, we identified the interdisciplinary relations of the areas of communication and information through the subjects and methodologies of the corpus articles of this research. The areas most related to the Sciences of Communication and Information are: education and librarianship. Finally, this research points out potential uses of bibliometric and scientometric methods for the study of interdisciplinary relationships between sciences.
