What we do

Management of the University's core web presence

In a nutshell it's the Web Team's job to make sure the University's core web presence is engaging, on brand, managed in a co-ordinator way, accessible, usable and promotes the University positively. There are a vast number of web pages on the University web servers and a large part of the Web Team's role is to design, structure and organise those pages enabling users to find what they are looking for easily and make their experience an enjoyable one as they browse the University websites.

The Web Team are also responsible for making sure third party and in-house developed systems, such as Study Direct or Sussex Direct, are structurally integrated into the core University website structures.
