northStudio is in Cahoots with the University of Delaware IT Department

As the showcase Drupal website for the University of Delaware, northStudio worked in close association with the UDel project team to ensure a beautifully designed and highly functional website was the resulting outcome.

Over a 2 year period, every department at the University of Delaware was challenged to develop a new website using the Drupal development platform and in-house resources. Despite their best efforts, the challenge was met with no success. As a result, the Department of Physics & Astronomy decided to source help from an externally agency. Enter stage left, northStudio. Straight out of the gates, the northStudio/University of Delaware partnership had all the earmarks of a successful courtship. The two key functional requirements of the new website would focus on course integration features and the presentation of faculty research.

The website solution that northStudio built for UDel's Department of Physics soon became the new benchmark and showcase website for all other UDel departments. Collaborating closely with department head, Dr. Branislav Nikolic, here is what he had to share of his experience working with the northStudio team:

"As someone who often collaborates within local and remote scientific research teams over the Internet, I can only say that working with the northStudio team has been one of the most pleasant experiences. Their highly skilled developers have assembled a very complex Drupal-based site for our Department of Physics and Astronomy in a record amount of time, often going few steps ahead of our needs. The site has quickly become a role model for the rest of the University. Furthermore, the search engine friendly code and search engine optimization (SEO) provided by northStudio.com has pushed our site toward the top of Google searches for many frontier physics topics we are involved in, thereby highly increasing the visibility of our research enterprise." - Dr. Branislav Nikolic
