Dr Stephen Evans

University Web Manager

Web Manager

Tel: 01334 462540

Prior to becoming the University of St Andrews Web Manager, Steve was an IT manager and research scientist at Cambridge University, where he developed intranet and web database applications for a magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) laboratory. During his research career he imaged the inside of a wide variety of objects including melons, strawberries and knees! While MRI was a fascinating technique, he gained more satisfaction from developing web-based solutions to help others with their research.

Steve is now responsible for the management and development of the University of St Andrews website. This includes managing the University's content management system. In addition, his role includes supporting and assisting all service Units and Schools with any web related matters.

His main interests are information architecture and developing solutions to enhance the ways the web is used to organise and disseminate information.

His interests lie in primarily in information architecture, HTML, CSS, jQuery, website accessibility and usability, and helping to make sure that people can find the information they are looking for.
