Inside Stories

20 Years of Media and Communications at the University of Sydney

Edited by Agata Mrva-Montoya, Cheryl O'Byrne, and Pam Walker

ISBN: 9781742105079

DOI: 10.30722/sup.9781742105079

Publication date: 01 September 2024

This book celebrates an important milestone in the history of Media and Communications (MECO) at the University of Sydney, telling stories of where we have been and where we are going. From its beginnings in 2000 to the impact of COVID-19, Inside Stories explores how MECO evolved from a project to a department and how, after two decades, it has become an influential research destination and a popular choice for domestic and international students. Written by MECO staff and students, the chapters offer engaging accounts of creativity, innovation and persistence against the backdrop of increasingly globalised universities and the “digital turn” in communications.
