DESCRIPTION
#PSEWEB presentation covering two significant projects aimed at transforming the communications experience for current UBC students. One was the development and implementation of a responsive website on the Drupal platform for all central student services information. The other project was the implementation of a centralized mobile strategy using the Modo Labs platform for the University’s core services such as the library, course information, wayfinding and events. Each project had a unique set of objectives but both had the common goal of using mobile to better meet students basic information needs as well as enhance the student experience.
