The University of Wollongong, abbreviated as UOW, is a public research university located in the coastal city of Wollongong, New South Wales, Australia, approximately 80 kilometres south of Sydney. As of 2012, the University had a total of 30,516 students enrolled, including 11,440 international students from more than 140 countries.[1]

## Engagement with Wikimedia projects

[edit | edit source]

As yet, little is known about UoW-related engagement with Wikimedia projects. In 2012 David Blackall developed the Video journalism course on Wikiversity, and uses that course in his formal teaching at the University of Wollongong. Prior to that, David ran a Wikinews assignment with his investigative journalism students at the University. David appears to be the first academic at UoW to be engaging with Wikimedia projects.
