The technology and construction management website was redesigned as part of the Academic Website Project, which strives to enhance academic websites for use in recruitment efforts.
Key features of the newly designed website include the following:
- Coordinates with marketing focus of department
This department already had an idea of promoting “build” as its tagline, so the new website embraces that theme. This allows the department to present a unified marketing effort. - Uses blog to provide newsletter content
Using a blog post to distribute the departmental newsletter keeps the newest information sorted to the top and allows clients to subscribe.
