MSU Denver Marketing and Communications plans to launch an improved newsroom website on msudenver.edu the first week of April to create a centralized place for users to find University news, information and events.

The new site will incorporate information from This Week @MSU Denver, MSU Denver media relations and other campus news and information sources. The site will leverage the functionality provided by MSU Denver’s content management system, Site Manager, to share content with more University websites across campus.

Web Communications Manager Chris Mancuso says the new site will deliver a better experience for website users, including improved content display, browsing and search functionality, and social sharing capability.

A second phase of the project will include a migration of nearly 9,000 pages of existing content into the new site, creating a robust online archive of University news and information, Mancuso says, noting that the newsroom upgrade is the first of several significant content and design upgrades planned for msudenver.edu.

Further details will be announced as the Marketing and Communications Web team completes development of the site.
