Objectives

Hong Kong Baptist University engaged Cheddar Media to design and build a virtual campus tour platform — a bespoke university website design project that would allow prospective JUPAS students to explore HKBU remotely during the university’s virtual consultation week. The platform needed to go beyond a standard website, creating an immersive digital experience where students could genuinely discover life at HKBU — meeting professors, hearing from alumni, and getting a real sense of the campus community without setting foot on site.

Approach

Our approach was to design a digital environment that captured the energy and spirit of the physical campus. Working closely with the HKBU team, we built a responsive, feature-rich virtual tour website that allowed students to navigate different faculties and areas of campus life, access video content from professors and alumni, and engage with the university’s programmes and community in a meaningful way.

The design prioritised usability and engagement — with clear navigation, immersive visuals, and content structured around the questions JUPAS students actually ask when choosing a university. The result was a compelling university website design experience that brought HKBU to students wherever they were, supporting enrolment and strengthening HKBU’s digital communications during a period when in-person engagement was limited.

Impact

The HKBU virtual campus tour successfully bridged the gap between the physical and digital campus experience — giving JUPAS students a genuine sense of life at HKBU and helping the university connect with prospective students at a critical moment in their decision-making journey. The platform demonstrated how thoughtful university website design can do more than inform: it can inspire.
