Cal Poly has been a Drupal campus since 2009

Drupal (pronounced "drew-pull")  is an open source Web Content Management System (WCMS) that allows users to easily organize, publish and manage a large variety of content on a website. We have about 200 Drupal 7 sites.

Why use Drupal for your website?

Drupal is Cal Poly's centrally supported Web technology, run by the Application Development and Integration team.

• Hosting and support are free. We do charge for migration and design services, or we can teach you to do them yourself.
• We provide user guides to help you learn to use it.
• We can help get you in. Hire a student to design a brand new site or migrate your existing content.
• Web-based software means you can access it from any web browser, without the need for specialized software or learning Dreamweaver.
• Keep your website within the Cal Poly branding standards.
• Features such as drafts, versioning, RSS feeds, an easy to use WSYWIG editor, rotating home page images, and the webforms and widgets modules make building your site easy.
• Delegate access to sections or pages of your site while maintaining control of style and navigation.
• Sites are hosted on secure servers and backed up nightly.
• Not convinced? Email drupalsupport@calpoly.edu to schedule a demo.
• Nearly 200 websites are currently in Drupal, and more are being built every day, so chances are one of your colleagues is already using it.
