  • Main University Website

    GCU-Main-Website

    In order to deliver to a strict brief and targets to increase student recruitment and create business relationships, our new design focused on clarity, usability and calls to action. We also ensured that the new website provided effective solutions for all of the project stakeholders without compromising the site’s effectiveness and user experience.

    The site was awarded Silver in the ‘best university website’ at the HEIST Awards.

  • Course Search

    GCU-Course-Search

    Very thorough user research lead us to create several innovative features to help prospective students make some very difficult and lengthy decisions, the most prominent of which is the course search system.

    The site needs to cater for varying types of prospective student - from local college students to international postgraduate applicants - all of whom have very different requirements, but  need to use the same course search feature. Our elegant solution makes it simple for everybody, while still being a very powerful search tool.

  • Programme Management System

    GCU-PMS

    Because of the complex nature of data management in universities, GCU had many requirements for how they needed to manage their course data to ensure consistency throughout the website. To provide a solution to these requirements, Status built - and continue to improve - a comprehensive Course (Programme) Management System, an incredibly powerful back-office system that gives the relevant staff the control they need to easily manage that data and publish it to the website and other systems.
