About Interactive Services


The Interactive Services group specializes in web site design, web site production, and in overall online strategy. Our services are fee-based, and our mandate is to support the University's web needs with a cost-effective, professional web-consulting service. We provide a variety of services for schools, departments, and campus groups, depending on your requirements. For example, we can:
  • Build a new web site. We can work with you to define the structure and the look and feel of your site. This includes logical organization of the information, how it is displayed on the page, the navigation structure, as well as color schemes and graphics. We create the HTML pages and other site components, and connect your site to the appropriate host server.
  • Redesign an already-existing site. If you would like to revise or update your web site, our designers can work with you to provide a professional look and feel that will enhance the value of your site.
  • Maintain an already-existing site. Our team will ensure that your site functions properly and will provide periodic updates as needed, including text and graphical changes.
  • Create online forms for your site. Forms serve many different needs such as: request forms, registration forms, order forms, surveys, and questionnaires that provide direct feedback to your department. The information from these forms can be saved into a database, converted into a PDF or e-mailed to a group of people. We also develop forms to allow for secure on-line credit card transactions.
  • Build your site into our content management system (CMS) . We can also incorporate an existing site into our CMS. The CMS application provides an easy-to-use way of creating and managing a web site. It allows you and your staff to create and edit the online content of your web site quickly and easily, without having to know the HTML language.
  • Provide a one-time temporary site. We can create and design a site to communicate a specific campus event to the University community.
