The management website was redesigned as part of the Academic Website Project, which enhances departmental websites with an eye toward student recruitment.

Because the management department houses several large majors and minors, the redesign team made providing a clear and streamlined user experience a top priority. They accomplished this by carefully organizing the website and strategically emphasizing key benefits, such as the department’s focus on gaining real-world experience.

Opportunities to practice skills

• Management, entertainment management and entrepreneurship students enjoy a number of practical outlets for the skills they learn in class. The redesigned website highlights this benefit through text and makes it easier for students to find information regarding internships and service-learning events.
• The student opportunities section houses much of this information, including extensive resources regarding the entertainment management internship program.
