Statement
The Technical University of Applied Sciences Würzburg-Schweinfurt (THWS) aims to provide access to their website in accordance with Article 1 of the Bavarian ordinance on the Creation of Barrier-Free Information Technology (BayBITV).
This accessibility statement applies to:
- the Webpage of the Bachelor's Degree Programme Mechatronics (IMC)
- the web presence of the Faculty of Electrical Engineering with its sub-domains Studiengängen Bachelor Elektro- und Informationstechnik and Master Elektro- und Informationstechnik
These websites partly comply with Article 1 BayBITV.
Non-accessible content:
- Some published documents cannot (yet) be offered barrier-free due to the amount of data they contain (this applies in particular to study guides, module handbooks or the versions of the SPOs).
- At the moment, we are working on creating contents in plain language (German) which are then translated into (German) sign language.
- Externally loaded content and externally created documents are sometimes not barrier-free. This may also affect documents from other faculties and departments of the THWS. The Faculties of Electrical Engineering and Mechanical Engineering are unable to provide for barrier-free access.
Creation of the accessibility statement
This statement was created on 3 September 2020.
It is based on a self-assessment of the Faculty of Electrical Engineering conducted on 3 September 2020.
This is repeated at regular intervals. This statement was last revised on 3 September 2020.
