OVERVIEW

The Health Communication Online Master of Science at the University of Illinois prepares communications professionals to tackle complex issues in healthcare. The program needed a modern web presence and a stronger message to attract prospective students.

 
 
 

CONTENT STRATEGY

The program sought more qualified applicants—working professionals looking for their next step. I developed messaging that emphasizes work experience and career potential. 

The voice is direct and authentic, carefully balancing the value of a part-time online degree with the reputation and rigor of the University of Illinois.

I significantly streamlined the number of pages, creating a simple information architecture that lends itself to an elegant, easy-to-navigate design for desktop and mobile.

 
 
 
 

BEYOND THE WEBSITE

The project included a print piece for graduate recruitment fairs and online ads, driving users to the website to apply. Voice and tone are consistent with the web for a strong brand and seamless experience.
