Home page modernization

After the revision of the main navigation and the launch of the landing page for prospective students in the middle of 2018, the homepage of the University of Applied Sciences was also to undergo a modernization. This had become outdated and could no longer meet the needs of the university and site visitors.

The design tested with the landing page for prospective students was to be incorporated into the new start page in rudimentary form.

The individual information areas now stand out more clearly from one another, which greatly improves usability. The quick links for the main target groups "prospective students", "students", "alumni" and "researchers and cooperation partners" also provide initial orientation.

A further highlight is the date and event overview, which provides the first important information at a glance with topic, date, time and location. The data is maintained in Campus Events, the event solution from Brain Appeal, and automatically transferred to the university's TYPO3 system via an interface.

Of course, the site is also optimized for mobile devices.

Requirement

• Consulting, concept and layout of the new homepage
• Technical implementation
• Visual adaptation of the extension for the import of data from Campus Events.
