The new websites of the Departments of the Polytechnic University of Bari are now online

The new portals for the four Departments introduce a redesigned structure to organize information, services, teaching and research activities and make them more accessible.
 

From 13 November 2026 The new websites of the Departments of the Polytechnic University of Bari are officially online, definitively replacing the previously used platforms, which have been deactivated at the same time.

The new portals are the result of a renewal process involving the Departments. In recent weeks, this process included a period of navigation and platform testing. Feedback and reports gathered during this phase helped identify the improvements needed, completing the work on optimization, security and integration with the University’s management systems.
 

A New Organization of Information and Services

The renewal brings changes to the structure and navigation of content. The new portals move beyond an organization based primarily on informational pages, lists of links and attached documents, adopting a structured model based on processes, services, expertise and searchable content.

Key new features include:

• Teaching and degree programmes: Information is organized around study pathways and students’ needs, enabling them to access procedures, services, forms and guidance relating to their degree programme more directly.
• Research and scientific expertise: Scientific areas, Scientific Disciplinary Sectors (SSD), research groups, laboratories, projects, publications, Research Quality Assessment (VQR) results and indicators are organized in a navigable, interconnected system. This makes it possible to explore and connect the Departments’ research activities.
• Document management: Documents are classified and accompanied by metadata, and users can search within the contents of files. This approach replaces the previous system, in which attachments were scattered across different website pages.
• Content organized by type: Institutional information, procedures, documents, notices and events are organized in separate sections to make them easier to browse and update.
• Integration across departmental areas: Teaching, research, quality assurance (AQ) and organization are linked through a structure that more coherently reflects the Departments’ activities and processes.
   

The launch of the new portals marks the completion of an important phase in the renewal of the digital presence of the Departments of the Polytechnic University of Bari.
