The Media office produces media releases of promotional activities and research at the University and all staff members are encouraged to liaise with the media and communications team to write and distribute news to the external community. There is an online news service detailing current and recent university happenings..

Mentions of Murdoch University in the media can be viewed through Murdoch University’s media monitoring site.

Photography services are also available through the Office of Corporate Communications and Public Relations. All external filming requests should be discussed with the Media and Communications team before approval is given.
