Background
I worked on this Information Architecture redesign project with a partner for our Information Architecture course in the MS in Information Sciences program at University of Tennessee, Knoxville. The project involved focusing on one website and over the course of the semester writing up a report to give suggestions for a complete information architecture overhaul.
