- There will no longer be distinct sites, but there will be an area or subsection for each faculty and each school (unless they are combined, or wish to be combined on the web, in which case there will be a blended area). See attachment for how these could be presented in a flattened IA. Combined areas could be provided for: Law, Engineering and CS, Architecture and Design, and Faculty of Education/School of Education: Te Kura Māori (to be discussed).
- The faculty and school areas will be located in About us > Faculties and schools.
- Faculty areas and school areas will be different from each other: they won't have duplicate content, and each of the two types of area will be tightly focused on a clear purpose and identified target audiences. They will be much simpler than the current sites.
- Content won't be duplicated across faculty sites or school sites. Where it represents a standard approach, it will be located in a common area of the mainsite.
- Content that is of high interest to Victoria's audiences will be centrally located on the mainsite. Strong linkages will ensure it remains findable for audiences from within the faculty and school areas.
- Information about subjects, programmes and courses will be located in ‘Future students’. The structure, presentation and content will be improved.
- Information about diplomas, certificates and professional development courses will also be located in 'Future students'. Improving the content is out of scope for the current project.
- Information about research centres and institutes, research projects, research funding and research partnerships will be located in the 'Research' section.
- Information about student wellbeing and support is located in 'Current students': generic information in faculty and school sites will be integrated with this.
