Unity Environmental University has launched a reimagined university website that brings together lightning-fast performance, AI integration, and a refreshed user experience to reflect its commitment to access, innovation, and environmental impact.
The new site isn’t just a digital refresh, it’s a reinvention. From the moment a prospective student or partner lands on the homepage, the site offers seamless navigation, mobile-first performance, and intelligent, conversational support through Unity’s virtual assistant, Una. Whether the goal is to apply, ask a question, or explore Unity’s sustainability-driven academic programs, the new experience is clearer, faster, and more intuitive than ever before.
“In the digital age, immediacy is everything,” said President and CEO, Dr. Melik Peter Khoury. “This site is more than a front door; it’s a real-time window into who we are as an institution. We’ve designed it so that learners, no matter where they are or what device they’re on, can connect with us immediately, get answers through AI, and take meaningful action without delay. If we say we’re about accessibility and innovation, that promise has to begin here.”
Designed to reflect Unity’s commitment to accessibility, affordability, flexibility, and mission-driven learning, the new site makes it easier than ever to take the first step in a student’s academic journey.
“From a student outcomes perspective, this launch is a game-changer,” said Denise Young, Executive Vice President of Educational Outcomes. “We’ve removed barriers at the very beginning of the learner journey. By helping students find the right information quickly, connect with the right program, and get support through tools like Una, we’re improving engagement from day one. That leads to stronger retention, better alignment with academic goals, and ultimately, better long-term success for our students.” The site was developed in collaboration with Digital Silk, a leading digital agency specializing in growth-driven website design, user experience, and brand storytelling.
“The leadership at Unity, especially President Melik Peter Khoury, are visionaries within an industry that is sometimes challenged to keep pace with technological change,” said Jamie Maloney, Partner | VP, Client Partner & Consultant at Digital Silk. “They entrusted Digital Silk to not only build a website with digital growth in mind, but also one that incorporates strategic AI integrations, strong storytelling, and flawless brand alignment for a fresh, future-ready website.”
