Drupal: The Leading CMS for Higher Education Institutions
Drupal has solidified its position as the preferred Content Management System (CMS) for higher education institutions, with an impressive 71% of the world's top 100 universities, including renowned names like MIT, Stanford, and the University of Oxford, choosing Drupal for their web platforms.
Peggy McGregor, in her article, "Drupal for Higher Education Websites: 7 Reasons It's the Top Choice“ on Evolving Web, highlights the unique digital challenges that Drupal effectively addresses, such as managing complex content, serving diverse stakeholders, and maintaining numerous websites. This adoption reflects the intrinsic strengths of Drupal in ensuring seamless digital transformation for educational institutions.
Its flexibility and customisation options stand out among the key benefits of Drupal for universities. Drupal's modular design allows for creating custom content types and layouts, accommodating a wide range of content, from course descriptions to faculty bios and research materials. The platform simplifies multilingual content support, enabling institutions to cater to international students and campuses. Drupal's open-source model, bolstered by a vast community of contributors, offers users access to over 50,000 ready-to-use modules without licensing fees, making it a cost-effective choice.
Usability is another forte of Drupal, with an intuitive user interface that caters to technical and non-technical users. The platform's modern admin theme, Claro, and upgraded WYSIWYG editor, CKEditor 5, enhance the content editing experience. Furthermore, Drupal's advanced user permissions, multisite management, third-party integrations, security features, and unwavering commitment to web accessibility make it the go-to CMS for higher education institutions.
