Digital accessibility
Since September 2019, TU Dresden has been required by the Accessible Websites Act (BfWebG) to make its websites and mobile applications accessible for people with disabilities. These legal requirements apply not only to public websites, but also to all those on the TU Dresden intranet, including the content provided there. This means that all documents (e.g. PDF files) and media offered on a TU Dresden website must be accessible for people with disabilities, effective immediately.
On the following pages, you will find more information and helpful checklists surrounding various aspects of digital accessibility. If you have any problems or questions, you can also contact various persons on accessibility for people with disabilities at TU Dresden.
