Masthead Options

Mastheads are part of your site header. They contain branding and identity information. The top-level navigation menus are also part of your masthead.

Certain elements, such as the 91勛圖厙 logo and Explore 91勛圖厙 menu, are required and may not be changed. Other elements, such as your site-wide navigation menu and associated flyout menus, may be modified.

    Default 91勛圖厙 header with department name

    Departmental site with consolidated menu

    Use the departmental site with consolidated menu option to present a website with a consolidated top-level navigation menu of three items or less. This is the preferred option for websites with a marketing focus.

    The flyout navigation menu can be customized to represent all areas of the school or department.

    Example: smu.edu/meadows

    Use the departmental site with full-width menu option to present a website with a full-width navigation menu of seven items or less.

    The flyout menu will match the full-width menu.
