Metior Magazine is a student publication of Murdoch University in Perth, Western Australia. METIOR is funded by the Murdoch University Guild of Students but remains independent. The name is an acronym for "Murdoch Empire Telegram Indian Ocean Review".
METIOR was founded in 1975, the same year Murdoch University was officially established. METIOR was a hard-copy student publication and went through many iterations, edits and formats throughout its time on campus. In 2015, due to a significant drop in readership and the undeniable influence of the internet, METIOR made the switch to online only. Using the Wordpress content management platform, it can be found at www.metior.com.au.
The magazine, in conjunction with the Murdoch Guild, plans to print one hard-copy edition at the beginning of every academic year but this is dependent on financial factors.
At its heart, METIOR is a publication for students, by students and supports them by facilitating creative discussions, publishing student work and covering student life at Murdoch's many campuses.
METIOR covers everything from student politics, arts, culture and music. It draws its strength from the highly talented photographers at the University but it is important to note that editorial focus shifts from editor to editor.
