Help Maintaining Web Sites

This page specifically addresses official university Web sites and your options for creating and maintaining these official sites.

Information Technology Services and the Office of Marketing and Communication direct the university's Web presence. If you have a question about Web authoring, please call the IT Services Help Desk at (414) 288-7799. Faculty are encouraged to use D2L eLearning for their course sites.

If you need assistance in the development or maintenance of a university Web site, you have many options to consider, based on your deadlines and your available budget. This page lists the different options and contacts below. The options are many and vary in time availability and cost: consultation through IT Services, training through the Grow with Marquette program, hired student assistance and outside vendors.

1. IT Services Web Development can do Web work of an all-university nature

IT Services Web Development gives top priority to supporting Web sites of a university-wide nature, especially enrollment and university identity sites, as well as IT Services departmental pages. Generally, IT Services will not design and maintain sites that are department or course specific.

Short of designing your department/course Web site, IT Services staff are available for:

training faculty and staff on Contribute Web authoring software
generating Web statistics and broken link reports for your Web site
answering technical questions about Web authoring

These services are available to Marquette students, faculty and staff at no charge. For more information, call the IT Services Help Desk at (414) 288-7799.

2. Faculty, administrators or staff can do the Web work

IT Services and the Grow with Marquette program offer training opportunities for faculty and staff. See http://www.marquette.edu/hr/employeedevelopment.shtml

Contact the IT Services Help Desk at (414) 288-7799 to arrange for an account on the Marquette Web server to host your department site.

3. A student employee or research assistant can do the Web work

Student Employment Services can post Web-related jobs on the JobConnection student employment announcement system. Contact Student Employment Services for more information at (414) 288-0200.

4. A vendor can do the Web work

Please contact Tom Pionek, director of interactive media in the Office of Marketing and Communication, to discuss your project and to solicit an outside vendor for building your web site. He can be reached at (414) 288-0303.
