These activities are supported by TU Dresden's quality objectives.

You can find concrete offers of help on the pages of the Commissioners for Students with Disabilities and Chronic Illnesses. Should you notice any deficiencies regarding the barrier-free design of TU Dresden, you can use the form "Report Barrier".

Declaration on Accessibility  

Technische Universität Dresden makes every effort to make its website tu-dresden.de accessible without barriers in accordance with the national legislation implementing Directive (EU) 2016/2102 of the European Parliament and of the Council.

This declaration on accessibility applies to the website tu-dresden.de. It does not apply to project websites and pages of individual chairs that are not part of the University's WebCMS.

Issuing of this Declaration on Accessibility

This declaration was issued on 3^rd December 2019. The last verification of TU Dresden's web presence by means of self-assessment was carried out on 25^th November 2019.

The basis for the issuing of this Declaration on Accessibility is a self-assessment of the website's compatibility with the requirements of the BfWebG in accordance with BITV 2.0, carried out by TU Dresden.

Status of compatibility with the requirements of the BITV

The web presence of TU Dresden was launched before 23^rd September 2018 and does not yet fully correspond to the current state of accessibility. We will correct the deficiencies in the coming months.

The responsibility for the editorial contents lies with the respective organisations and persons who have created the contents of these pages. They are supported in their work by regular quality controls and training. Nevertheless, errors and barriers in implementation may occur.
