Structure and navigation
The basic principle for KTH's websites is navigation via the left-hand menu to move downwards in the content and the menu in the header to move between different entrances.
Three websites
The KTH web consists of three websites:
The external website, www.kth.se, has sections for different target groups and tasks. They are centrally maintained and common to the site. The common sections are accessed from the page header. Schools, institutions, and centres are starting nodes on the website.
The intranet and the student web are separate sites with their page headers.
Target groups for our websites
Structure
The basic principle is that all content is articles located in departments. It is a hierarchical catalogue structure.
Navigation
Desktop
Navigation down the structure is via the left-hand menu.
So-called breadcrumbs are used to move upwards in the structure. The link path above the main content is used to move upwards in the structure and shows all the steps upward in the hierarchy.
You can move between the different sections via the menu in the header.
Mobile phone
You navigate up and down the structure via a drop-down menu in the header. When pages have no left-hand menu in desktop mode, the menu contains the site's common sections.
Languages
Language management is based on parallel language use.
