Using the Course search component in Typecase

How to use the Course search component to help users find undergraduate and postgraduate courses on the University website.

When to use the Course search component

Use the Course search to add a search bar to the top of a Topic page.

Only use the Course search component if:

  • the content on your Topic page is for prospective undergraduate or postgraduate students
  • it makes sense for users to search for courses when they visit that page

For example, we use the Course search component on the page, 'Taught postgraduate study' because the page is for prospective postgraduate students who are interested in finding out about our courses.

We don't use the Course search component on the 'Visas' page because prospective students looking at this are not thinking about courses at this point in their user journey.

Finding the Course search component

You can find the Course search component under 'Course search' on the Typecase template for Topic pages.
