YOUNGSTOWN, Ohio – The Education Digital Marketing Awards recently recognized Youngstown State University’s newly redesigned website with a Silver Award in the Institutional Website – Update/Refresh category.
The Education Digital Marketing Awards celebrate innovative and effective digital communication efforts across the education sector. This year’s competition saw more than a thousand entries from colleges, universities and secondary schools across the country. Submissions were judged by a panel of education marketers, advertising creative directors and industry professionals who evaluated creativity, design, functionality and strategic impact.
YSU’s redesigned website, launched in April, was developed to offer a faster, cleaner and more user-friendly experience. The updated website features modern design elements, simplified navigation and enhanced functionality to help prospective and current students, faculty, staff, alumni and community members access the information they need. The site is responsive across devices and built with accessibility and engagement at its core.
The redesign was shaped by campuswide feedback and crafted to better showcase YSU’s academic programs, campus life and university news.
YSU joins a list of institutions honored for digital innovation across 34 categories, including 229 that received Gold Awards, 139 that received Silver Awards and 79 that received Bronze Awards.
