University Search


Google has links to search most of the U.S. university Web sites and many from around the world. The ability to search a single university site, rather than using the Web search, clearly reduces the number of results you may need to review in finding the information you are looking for. Visit www.google.com/universities.html to see a list, as shown in Figure 3.7.

Figure 3.7: Choose a university Web site from the list.

The university sites listed in Google do not link directly to the university Web sites, but instead to a search box that allows you to search just one university for information. This focuses your search when hunting for information at a particular university.

Searching on a topic using the University Search box may provide you information on admissions, faculty members, classes, papers available online, library resources, online catalogs, and any other types of information or resources the University Web site maintains online. Universities often host student Web pages as well.

The Advanced Search features are the same as those for searching the Web using Google’s Advanced Web Search. See Chapter 2 for more information on using these advanced search features.

To add your university’s Web site, visit www.google.com/options/mycampus.html.
