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

Three case studies of ongoing projects investigating sociotechnical issues are used to illustrate some of the challenges faced by researchers crossing the faculty divide.
