Title: Web Page Development for the ECE Graduate Program

The internet, which began in 1969, is among the greatest findings of the twentieth century. It has grown from four host computer systems to tens of millions. What is so remarkable about this very useful tool is that no one owns it and it is available to anyone who can afford it. The internet can be a tool for education, motivation, information, persuasion, sales, or advertisement.
We explored using the internet as a tool for education by investigating web page development. The Electrical and Computer Engineering Graduate Program is the largest graduate program on Purdue University’s campus with an annual enrollment of about 500 students, which is one/fifth of the total graduate student population at the university. The program is comprised of students from not only across the country, but also from around the world. Because of this, the internet plays a vital role in transferring information to anyone.
In this paper, we report our results produced from investigating web development using a very important language called Hyper Text Markup Language (HTML). HTML is identified as a markup language because it tells a computer how a page should be formatted. By exploring this language, we were able to assist in easing the transfer of information from the ECE Graduate Program to their students.
