About our new website

Welcome to the new University of Newcastle website - one of the first communication tools to adopt the University's new visual identity.

As you may have already noticed, the homepage and top-level pages of the website have a new visual design.

Over the coming months, a staged approach will be taken to apply this visual identity to the rest of the website. There will also be a concurrent rollout of a new Content Management System (the technology supporting the website).

Part of the new CMS rollout project will include:

• A review of the information architecture of the website, which includes navigation, and content suitability and governance. This component of the project will report to the Data Management Group. New workflows and approval processes will also be introduced as part of this component of the project.
• Identification of common language and metadata (keywords).
• Continuing work on Search engine optimisation.

The aim of these significant projects for 2007 is to improve the accessibility and usability of our website.

You will notice some significant visual changes over the coming months, and we thank you for your cooperation during this transitional phase. Please note that analytics on usage statistics for our website (powered by Google Analytics) will continue to be available from the Web Team on a monthly basis.
