Web Design and Website Development at Web Design Philippines!

The University of Santo Tomas (UST) is the oldest existing university in Asia. It is a Dominican institution based in the Philippines that’s inspired by St. Thomas Aquinas’ ideologies and instruction.

Envisioning itself to become a center of excellence in various academic fields, UST has tapped the great modern medium — that is the Internet — to facilitate academic interaction among its internal and external stakeholders.

Besides the basic features one might find in a web design and web development, UST’s web site is also packed with fully-functional services conveniently tailored to meet user-specific needs. User levels are classified into major groups of the University’s target audience: the students (further subdivided into prospective and current), the faculty, the alumni, the parents and the administrators. By choosing the appropriate user menu, site visitors are guided in navigating across the creative web design of the web site’s pages through relevant links to the respective pages of interest. For example, Prospective Students are immediately redirected to a page where links to the Admissions Office and to Undergraduate Studies are provided.

The website is also designed to be the portal to a host of other online services of the university. Linked from the web site is UST’s Miguel de Benavides Library, a virtual library where students may access select databases, including abstracts, university publications, and collections. From the website, registered users may also access UST’s online Learning Program, e-LeAP. This program delivers quality learning at the convenience of any place outside the classroom. Faculty and authorized staff, on the other hand, may access students’ grades online through the web site.

The lasting impression one would definitely get from a careful study of UST’s website is the strong focus on the university’s commitment to its role in the formation of an empowered and enlightened studentry. The web design and features were carefully crafted in detail to achieve this end.
