Sectors - Academic

In the academic world, the possibilities presented by the internet are many and varied.

Cubeworks understands this. We have worked with several of the UK's leading universities including the University of Southampton, Portsmouth and Winchester and the University of Arts London.

Bespoke

We recognise that no two challenges are the same and that your requirement will, therefore, be unique. Our experience with academic institutions and ability to produce bespoke web solutions have established Cubeworks as a recognised web partner within this sector. For an example of this, see our University of Southampton case study.

Accessible

With our experience in the academic and public sectors has come a vast knowledge and appreciation of web accessibility and web standards compliance. So you can rest assured that attention to the detail required by these disciplines comes as standard from Cubeworks.

We also understand that, as a large academic organisation, you may need to outsource your IT / web functions to us to eliminate bottlenecks and reduce the workload on your own IT department.

University2Business

Complementing the range of skills and technologies we can offer to academia is University2Business, a powerful tool for creating an online directory of expertise at your Higher Education Institution (HEI).

University2Business was launched in 2004 after a year of planning and development and input from two major UK HEIs. The result is a powerful search engine and directory for connecting all your areas of expertise and knowledge bases to your target businesses and industries. What's more, the look and feel can be completely customised so you can integrate the system within your existing website.

Its intutitive web-based management system enables institutional, departmental, facilities and academic information to reside in one secure location – simplifying your relations with other organisations.

University2Business is also indispensable as an internal tool. We know from experience that in academic institutions, existing HR and expertise databases are often out of date. Using University2Business, staff can quickly and easily locate areas of expertise and key contacts – some of which they may have been previously unaware – thereby enhancing the success of their relationships with businesses and regional partners, in turn generating more revenue for the organisation.
