Home and Gateway Pages
Every month, the University of Ottawa home and gateway pages attract over 1.5 million visitors with very diverse interests and needs. This section develops a strategic approach to the home and gateway pages. It states the communication objectives for each gateway page in line with the University’s mission, vision and values (as stated in Vision 2010).
The home and gateway pages are designed with a modular approach that can be adapted to our communication efforts in order to meet our audiences’ changing needs. To address the needs of website users, we present both promotional and operational content.
The home and gateway pages are where we provide evidence of our successes and information about our culture, our services and the university experience.
