Digitisation of WAIT historical photographs
Working with the Digitisation Centre of Western Australia we are currently digitising a large collection of photographs, 35mm film slides and negatives showing the unique history of the University.
These images, taken when we were the Western Australian Institute of Technology (WAIT) (1967-1987) offer a valuable insight into the evolution of education, research, student life and the development of a modern university and campus.
This digitisation project will take time as we reformat and embed images with as much contextual information as possible.
