On Monday, June 25, 2012 the College of Agriculture & Natural Resources website introduced a new website design, making a number of changes to improve usability and marketing.
The welcome screen has been updated to create a more dynamic interface. Relevant news articles will be cycled to give the site a fresh look. Also the site intergrates social media and Giving to the College in a more visible way.

The menu has changed on the site from a left menu to a top drop down menu. This allows a user of the site to get to their desired page with less mouse clicks.

One of the biggest improvements to the site is the quick access to information. There is a been a user focused approach to make sure relevant information is available upfront and not hidden behind excessive links. The scholarship page is one such example where information regarding deadlines and maximum awarded amounts is listed right next to a link with further information about the scholarship.
