Overview
Prompt
Delaware State University's Office of IE & TIX had a simple website that didn't reflect the offices services and resources. There weren't enough child pages to effectively convey what the office provides. Additionally, the visuals were out of line with the university's brand guidelines. A new webpage was needed to resolve these issues.
My Role
As the sole web designer on this project, I paid keen attention to the school's branding as well as other webpages to develop a website that accurately reflects what the office provides in a welcoming manner. I also worked closely with the office to ensure the content aligned with their goals.
