WSSU Website Navigation Tutorial

 

 

Purpose:

This article is intended to assist faculty and staff with navigation of the Winston-Salem State University web site, with a focus on their day-to-day use.

Getting Started:

Quick Links - Faculty/Staff

 

 

While the Winston-Salem State University public-facing web site’s primary focus is our prospective students, alumni, and donors we have not forgotten about Faculty. Utilize the Faculty & Staff quick link menu to get to the tools used most often by faculty. If what you need, is not immediately visible check out the Get More Info section.

  • For administrative information faculty can once again utilize the Faculty & Staff quick link menu to get to the Administration section of the website that used to be in the main navigation of the website.
  • Within the Faculty & Staff page mentioned above. The faculty is asked to visit the Faculty/Staff Profile section to request a profile to create/maintain their university profile. Web Support Services conducts profile creation sessions based on the number of requests received.
  • Faculty can create and maintain their profile by reading the instructions provided.

Viewers can learn about degree programs and associated departments by typing the desired area of study in the “Find My Degree” search box and a listing is presented of available degree programs related to the key word entered. Once on the degree program page, there is valuable information. To find out about the department that supports that degree program explore the designated department that is listed on the page. The “Find My Degree” search box is located on the wssu.edu landing page and the Academics page.

When all else fails there is the general search that appears at the top of every page on the web site. It is part of the primary navigation. Type in a topic or subject in which you are interested. Scroll down and there is a listing of links that are related to your entry.

There is also the University Directory Search, which allows you to search for a person using any of the following:  first name, last name, full name, or last name, first name. You can also search by department to see the department chair and general department contact information. This information is then followed by the department personnel in alphabetical order.
