CalCentral Student Portal

Problem: Students have to make their way through the University of California – Berkeley using a huge number of antiquated websites and applications, from their initial application to registration for classes, from using the LMS in classes to participating in campus life, and to find a job and remain connected as an alum after graduation.

Business goals:

Create a “One Stop Shop” for students, aggregating information from numerous UC Berkeley websites and applications, to help them answer these questions:

  • Where do I need to be?
  • What do I need to do?
  • What do I need to know?
  • What am I working on and with whom?
