• Fall in love again with the Concordia mobile app: We've given our beloved mobile app a makeover with improved navigation, enhanced usability and accessibility—making it easier than ever to stay connected.

Sites in the spotlight

• Stepping out of the past! The Department of History site has 30 fewer pages and minimizes the number of pages that require updates. Program guides and advising information have been grouped by program, simplifying the student journey.
• The Department of Psychology site is crafted with the goal of providing a people-centered feeling with a focus on research and community. This revamp has resulted in a user-friendly platform, where prospective and current students can access information tailored to their career aspirations.
• The Département d’études françaises website showcases its strengths in the study of translation and French language and literature, and highlights the student experience awaiting those interested in learning the language. 
• The Graduate Student Hub got a major refresh to resemble a dashboard experience of timely and need-to-know announcements for graduate students.
• An extensive competitive review for the Executive MBA (EMBA) program gave the UCS Web Team the insights to realign the site’s content and structure, levelling the site with similar Canadian EMBA programs. The site highlights the program’s strengths and its impact in the business community. 
• Find the right word for your ideas in French! With its database of 4,500 specialized and original terms, LexiConcordia is designed to help Concordia's community and professionals in mastering technical and scientific French. 
• The Co-op website now features our own Concordia student models rather than stock photos. The Co-op internships section now gives students a better idea of what to expect from a Co-op experience. The home page has a customizable hero to highlight the application, job search and work term phases. Take a look!
