Higher Education

iFactory creates innovative, practical media solutions custom-tailored to improve how you communicate and transact with your students, prospective enrollees, alumni, faculty and staff.

For over 10 years, we’ve served the best and brightest in higher education, including Dartmouth, Harvard University, MIT, Rhode Island School of Design, Tufts University, University of Massachusetts, University of Michigan, Wellesley College, and Yale University.

Over the years, we’ve honed our process to reflect the skills needed for successful higher education initiatives, including consensus building, audience testing, content gathering, and the ability to seamlessly integrate with internal IT systems.
