Student Input Needed!

The University will be launching a new web portal in late 2014 and we need your input.

What is a portal? The portal is an easy-to-use interactive web tool that facilitates access to information and services that are of primary relevance and interest to the individual user. It will replace the current MyU portal and integrate features of OneStop and other functionality.

Attend a design thinking workshop!

Design Thinking @ College of Design in partnership with the portal team will lead participants through a process of observation, brainstorming, synthesizing, prototyping, and evaluating towards the goal of identifying and ranking possible design elements and portal features for the new U of M portal.

Space is limited but still available for:

Wed. April 10, 9 a.m. - Noon
Hubert H. Humphrey School of Public Affairs, Room 180

Thursday, April 18, 9 a.m. - Noon
