University Web sites

DePaul University hosts multiple Web sites for its colleges, departments, business units, and official student organizations. If you would like to create a Web site for your area, you have two options to consider, as described in the text below.

If you would like to discuss your Web site needs in greater depth or remain uncertain which option suits you best, you are invited to contact an IS staff member or consult with Blue Fusion.

Condor-based Web sites: condor.depaul.edu/~yoursite

If you are looking for a basic site that features text and a few images, consider a condor-based Web site. The condor server hosts a wide range of university Web sites from faculty pages to departmental information pages to student organizations.

Condor sites can be a no-cost "do it yourself" endeavor to create and maintain. (Instructional Technology Development offers great resources for this purpose.)
Alternately, you can work with the university's Blue Fusion group for a professionally-designed and implemented site. Blue Fusion can provide you a project proposal and price quote after determining your needs through consultation with you.
No technical support is provided for condor-level sites. Space restrictions may apply.
To get started, complete the paperwork to request your Departmental Web Site.

Domain-level Web sites: sitename.depaul.edu

If your site will feature interactive functions, database connections, is large in size, should be hosted by IS, and requires a high level of visibility, consider a domain-level Web site.

If you choose to develop a domain-level site on your own, Information Services requires you to have a skilled Web administrator on your staff. An on-staff administrator is not required if you work with Blue Fusion. (For system security purposes, non-DePaul Web administrators are not permitted.)
The university's Blue Fusion group is available to develop a professionally-designed and implemented site. Blue Fusion can provide you a project proposal and price quote after determining your needs through consultation with you.
IS provides Web hosting services on Windows and Linux platforms for both university departments and student groups (as authorized by Student Life).
To get started, contact Blue Fusion for a site design consultation (dtuttolo@depaul.edu) or Information Services for technical support details (oss@depaul.edu).
