Therefore, we sought to understand how early careerfaculty researchers could overcome these challenges and benefit from interdisciplinarycollaborations in order to be well-positioned to meet the demands of society’s grand challenges.Using a case study methodology, we explored how faculty researchers from disparate disciplinesbuilt interdisciplinary collaborations. Cohorts of 3-5 faculty researchers from a variety ofSTEAM disciplines, including engineering, science, education, and the arts, were groupedtogether and tasked with a series of activities. These challenges included presenting in aninteractive way at a science museum

For the future workforce, the ability to collaborate well inmultidisciplinary teams is a highly valued professional skill. Many educational institutions haveimplemented project-based learning to develop students’ teamwork skills. One of the topchallenges is managing potential conflicts after team formation.
