What were the problems?

The issue arose from a lack of a defined visual identity, leading to poor product-market fit and positioning.

Visual identity

Not mobile-friendly

Product-market fit

previous experience

The main screens and the user flow of the experience.

Desk research

Benchmarking: it became clear that the user effort required to enroll using the website was much higher compared to competitors.

Market perception analysis: compared to other institutions offering the same model of digital post-graduate programs, the university was positioned with the second-highest price.

Redesigning the experience

The redesign incorporated all aspects of the previous analysis. I created a style guide containing navigation components and a new color palette. Below, the simplified new course selection journey.

New desktop experience
Results

Using Maze, two unmoderated usability tests were conducted to test the fluidity of navigation and the difference from the previous version: one test with the previous version and one test with the new version.

Regarding the recruitment of participants, it was done by me, and a discount coupon for the bookstore was used as an incentive to participate.

The 10 tests performed (5 of each model) resulted in 57.14% faster navigation and a 67% drop in the rate of incorrect clicks.
