Academics

Academics is a free Bootstrap 4 HTML5 multipage education website template distributed by ThemeWagon and created by Colorlib for schools, colleges, universities, and educational organizations.

What is Academics?

Academics is a free Bootstrap 4 HTML5 education website template released on ThemeWagon and built by Colorlib. It takes typical university site content — courses, events, blog posts, testimonials, pricing, contact and login pages — and renders it as a responsive multipage website. The package includes 9 HTML files, compiled CSS and SCSS source files, JavaScript sources, and licensed library plugins, so you can adapt it for a production campus site.

Key Features

• Bootstrap 4.1.3 foundation — Layout and components are built on Bootstrap 4.1.3 with Popper.js included for dropdowns and tooltips.
• Multipage structure — 9 HTML files cover homepage, courses, pricing, blog, contact, and two authentication forms, with footer navigation and breadcrumbs across pages.
• Hero header and full-screen slider — The home page opens with a hero header and a full-screen slider using Owl Carousel to rotate key announcements or imagery.
• Sticky top navigation with drop-down menu — Navigation stays pinned on scroll and supports drop-down menu items, fitted for course or department lists.
• Course and testimonial carousels — Owl Carousel powers both a course carousel and a testimonial carousel, and Slick is included as an additional slider option.
• Lead-generation sections — An email subscription form sits in the page along with a call-to-action button, and the contact page includes a contact form.
• On-hover image effects and Icomoon icons — Images animate on hover, and the design uses Icomoon font icons rather than image icons for UI and social elements.
• Browser and device compatibility — The template is fully responsive and the listing states compatibility with Chrome, Edge, Firefox, Safari, Opera, and mobile devices.

Who is it for?

Academics is aimed at web developers and site owners in education who need a free starting point rather than a custom build.

• College and university web teams — create department, admissions, or news pages using the blog section, breadcrumbs, and course carousels without writing markup from scratch.
• Freelance web designers — customize the SCSS source files and 9 HTML pages to deliver a branded campus site for clients, since the template is open source and free for commercial projects.
• School staff and small academies — use the email subscription form, testimonial carousel, and pricing table to publish class offerings, parent updates, and fee information fast.

What can you do with Academics?

• Launch a course catalog — display programs in the course carousel and link each to a detail page built from the multipage HTML structure.
• Publish institutional news and events — adapt the blog section and call-to-action buttons to announce admissions deadlines, open days, or research updates.
• Collect student or parent inquiries — the contact page's form and the 2 authentication forms give you a ready-made way to handle inquiries and registrations, which you can wire to a backend or email service.
