Media Lab Report

Goodwin, M ; Lim, L (School of Culture & Communication, University of Melbourne, Australia, 2016-09-16)

The School of Culture and Communication is a large interdisciplinary School with a number of inter-related media, communications, digital humanities, screen studies and journalism programs and research groups requiring high quality media facilities. These programs are growing in global significance as the fields of the humanities, communication disciplines interact with real world issues and contexts. The reputation of the School, commensurate with the University’s ambition to be a world-leading institution, for delivery of high quality teaching and research is currently inhibited by the lack of a dedicated strategy and resource agenda to provide suitable media facilities anywhere on campus. The purpose of this report was to identify the requirements of programs within the Faculty of Arts, to investigate what was available at competitor institutions both in Australia and internationally, to scope existing resources on campus and to identify any possibilities for expansion or refurbishment of appropriate spaces on campus. In addition, it was to recommend courses of action to stage investment in a Media Lab at the University of Melbourne Carlton campus.
