The UAB launches a more modern and accessible website
The UAB launches a new home page and inner pages. It now offers a modern platform that seeks to provide optimal navigation and improvements for users. Moreover, its new design works towards an improved accessibility, with the aim of making it easier to find and view content.
With this newly designed presentation of the UAB's contents, the university also marks a change in communication and the audience it aims to reach, given that emphasis is now also put on external audiences and a strengthening of the UAB brand.
These improvements in the visual contents and accessibility are important elements providing support to our multimedia and audiovisual resources, to the adaptation for mobile devices, the use of analytical tools applied to user navigation, and more particularly, to the visibility of the UAB website in search engines.
Other new aspects offered in the website are the shortcuts for each of the UAB's different groups, the virtual campus site and the media, with the aim of improving navigation for each type of user and also providing more specific information for different audiences.
The contents are organised into five sections: Studying, Research, International, Life on campus and About the UAB. A completely new section, International, was created to strengthen this aspect of the UAB by making academic and research programmes and activities more visible for the international community.
The project designed by the Web Unit of the Area of Communication and Promotion and now being presented is the sum of the newly designed webpages of the departments and institutes which began to be published in 2021, and is expected to be finalised in the year 2022. The renewal of the UAB's website will be carried out progressively.
