Using the Caltech Home Page

Caltech is pleased to present a revamped Caltech home page, which is jam-packed with features despite its clean, streamlined design.

Hover your mouse over the text below for a demonstration of the feature described:

The banner image changes periodically throughout the day but you can also flip randomly through all the images by clicking the banner itself. For users who just want to find the link to a specific URL on campus, we've organized the possible Web destinations into twelve categories. Point at the categories to see a short description of the type of content the link holds. Click the navigation bar and the content of this page will immediately switch (no reloading!) to show a hierarchy of possible destinations. Stories on the homepage are refreshed daily with new stories supplied by our daily news service, Caltech Today.

Search the Caltech Web (sites on .caltech.edu servers) using our Google-powered search engine. You can also search directly through the Directory, Calendar, Archives and Library databases. Other important stories are linked through this rotating headlines bar.
