Order of PG programmesJane/Paul

Do we need a consistent approach to the ordering of pg programmes


PG international 'How to apply'PaulHow do we best handle the PG how to apply information for international students? What and how many systems should master it?
 Apply buttonNick/writers

We've got the new standard PG qual Apply text

See for e.g. http://stage.victoria.ac.nz/explore/postgraduate-programmes/master-of-international-trade/apply-contact

Since apply is the key action we thought it should be a blue button. Should it and if so, who needs to do what?


Summary card insensitive to inter-subject differencesPaul

An example is "How can we accurately communicate that Information Systems in a BCom(Hons) has two intakes per year, whereas the other subjects have only one?"

Adding new content to 'clarify/correct' the situation can be done 'cheaply' but contradicts existing information and might just confuse.

Making the cards 'subject-sensitive' is expensive but provides the user with only the correct information for each subject in a qualification.


Non-major BA subjectsPaulWe need to list other subjects in the general UG degrees that aren't majors. Where can we best/easiest place them on the UG degree page? Use the BA as our example.
Do we list graduate qualifications on PG subject pages?Paul

Technically, they are UG level of study.

Most schools/faculties list them as PG, some as both UG and PG.

Many potential students think of themselves as PG students, so gravitate to PG programmes to look for their next study option.


External Google seems to override our HTML titleNick

e.g. In this search for text only on the MFA(CP) page when you select film

the title is "Film - Victoria University of Wellington"

(If you click repeat the search with the omitted results included you see a range of titles, one for each parameter (Film, Design, Music, Theatre) and one for the URL/heading (Requirements)

But the code of: http://www.victoria.ac.nz/explore/postgraduate-programmes/master-of-fine-arts-creative-practice/requirements?subject=film

shows:

<title ng-bind="MetaService.title">Master of Fine Arts (Creative Practice) | Victoria University</title>
