The Power of DM at UOD

Have you ever thought about how much data is created at UOD in a single day?

  • How many videos, photos, stories, and academic insights are shared online?
  • How much of these lives on — and how much is at risk of disappearing?

Digital Media is not just communication — it's evidence of achievement, culture, and identity. Our mission is to make sure no story is lost, and no success goes unrecorded.

A Living Archive

Preserving UOD’s Journey

Since 1995, the DOPR has collected thousands of hours of multimedia content. UDMO is now actively digitizing these archives to:

  • Create a University Digital Repository accessible for staff, students, and the public
  • Present a historical timeline of UOD’s transformation and growth
  • Celebrate a community of over 30,000 scholars, professionals, and students

Our archives include photographs, videos, event recordings, interviews, publications, and digital artifacts
