USD Launches New Business School Website
The ease of which you can find and digest information about a potential MBA program is key to helping you make your choice. If a school makes it difficult to locate the program you want and the details you need, then you’re more likely to choose another program. And that’s exactly why the University of San Diego School of Business Administration recently updated its website.
According to a press release from the university, the updated website aims to deliver information to prospective students exploring graduate and undergraduate business degree and career options. And it was designed with users in mind.
“We surveyed prospective undergraduate and graduate students, and later in the project conducted a usability study with our prospective audience to ensure the design and intended usability appealed to their needs,” explained the university.
Some of the features of the new website include:
- Responsive design that works for mobile, tablet and desktop devices, so students can access USD anytime and anywhere.
- A looping video showcase feature that shows the USD campus and school and, in the future, will be used to show videos of inspiring speakers and important announcements and advancements.
- A new “global impact” home page that demonstrates USD’s excellence around the world.
- An updated faculty and staff web page, which has a new filtering feature as well as an ability to search. Each faculty and staff member listing also comes with more research information and larger photos.
- A “study abroad system” for students to quickly and easily see what international options are available based on specific search options.
- A newly updated course catalog, which provides up-to-date course information.
- A new news center, events calendar, and blog site to share information about the school, faculty and related centers.
- A social media hub, which aggregates all of USD’s content from all of its social profiles.
- Finally, all content has been rewritten and edited for optimal readability.
