In-site Insight's Within Sight: Increasing the Usability of the University of Chicago's Class Registration Portal Through User Interface Redesign

Any university-implemented system for student use is expected to possess certain key attributes, namely, an intuitive user interface, real functional utility, and refined design. The UChicago my.classes class registration portal is a prime example of an outdated university system; it no longer satisfies the requisite criteria of being intuitive, useful, and refined. In this paper, I argue that the UChicago my.classes registration portal is in desperate need of a redesign and propose a solution via a mock up.
