Abstract

Interdisciplinary has recently become a focus of research and innovation in Australian universities. The traditional university structures, however, have not historically supported cross-faculty collaborations.

This talk is about the challenges of working across faculties, forming and maintaining research teams, and producing measurable outcomes in one university setting. Three case studies of ongoing cross-faculty projects investigating sociotechnical issues will be used to illustrate some of the challenges faced by researchers crossing the faculty divide.
