Web Design Standards
The university’s web standards and best practices are designed to make your website as user friendly and consistent as possible, while providing basic instruction in the use of SJSU's web content management system (Modern Campus CMS).
Using Modern Campus CMS
Building websites outside of the CMS
All websites built on the university domain "sjsu.edu" must first be approved by Web Ops. Any website, regardless of whether it uses "sjsu.edu" or not, is subject to the university's content standards.
Website Headers and Footers
When creating your webpages, using SJSU-branded header and footer components is required. Having consistent headers and footers establishes a strong SJSU web presence and provides clarity about information to your audience.
Web Colors
Make sure you're using the correct SJSU brand colors on your webpages. Plus, you'll get the added bonus of making sure your page design is consistent with SJSU identity and is accessible to all users.
Spirit Mark Favicon
While the spirit mark is meant to be used for print materials, a favicon version has been created for your website's tab icon, URL icon, or bookmark icon.
