Professional Web Pages (PWPs)
Your PWP is a vital part of your professional image at Imperial
A professional web page (PWP) is your personal College web page that includes:
- a personal summary and profile photo
- information about your role at the College
- a description of your research interests (if applicable)
- links to your research publications (if applicable)
All members of staff and postgraduate students at Imperial have a PWP.
Personalising your PWP with up-to-date information is a great way to publicise yourself at the College – and within the wider higher education and research community – as PWPs are highly ranked in Google and other search engines. This can offer a real advantage when promoting your research or when trying to attract potential collaborators and funders.
Your PWP can also be found in staff lists on departmental or research group websites and through College search results for your name.

Are your PWP pages accessible?
Accessibility is the right thing to do, not just from the perspective of considering all users, but also in terms of the law. As a public sector body, the College is legally obliged to meet accessibility requirements(opens in a new tab).
At Imperial, our main websites are designed and built with accessibility as one of the most important elements. But as content editors, you have a role to play in how you create and add content to your Professional Web Pages (PWP).
