Tomorrow, Thursday, Nov. 5, hartford.edu will launch a newly redesigned homepage that reflects the energy, ambition, and opportunities that define UHart. As the University's number one digital marketing tool, the new homepage has been intentionally designed with prospective students in mind, creating a more engaging, mobile-first experience that helps future Hawks explore their interests, discover academic pathways, and connect with the UHart story from the moment they arrive. The new homepage encompasses refreshed content as a result of last year's brand messaging work and input from the UHart community through surveys and collective feedback.
