Schools / Departments
Page Redesign
Project Duration: June 2026 - August 2026
Role: UX Lead
Summary: Updated the existing College of Engineering “Units” page to match the new college brand identity prioritizing visual changes and minor content edits.
Objectives:
Replace “Units” language with “Schools / Departments” to improve page identification
Reformat existing content to give each school a spotlight and theme them with school specific content and branding colors
Original layout
What Worked:
Straightforward content
Links out to School and Department specific webpages
Pain Points:
“Units” title was unclear to audiences
It wasn’t easily identifiable as the sub sections of the College of Engineering
The terminology wasn’t used in other university wide messaging
“Units” is used synonymously with “Course Credits” at other universities
Visually cluttered
Out of date with our updated branding
Updated Design
I revamped the existing page, bringing it needed clarity and purpose. With the updated navigation terminology, we improved task success rate and reduced errors for users. The new design is polished and energetic calling attention to each school and department through exciting color blocks, pattern overlays, and updated imagery.
