The Campus Straubing of the Technical University of Munich is committed to making its websites—including their mobile versions—accessible in accordance with the Bavarian E-Government Ordinance (BayEGovV).

Status of Compliance with Requirements

These websites partially comply with the requirements of §1 BayBITV. The non-compliances and exceptions are listed below.

Non-Accessible Content

  • Alt attributes are partially missing for images, tables, controls, and layout graphics.
  • Information in plain language is missing.
  • There may be errors in the heading hierarchy, or links may be unclear.
  • Not all PDF documents are accessible.
  • Complete audio descriptions, full-text alternatives, or subtitles are not available for all embedded videos.
  • Words and sections in other languages are not marked.
  • Maps used for directions must be supplemented with written directions.
  • In the case of automatically generated content, there are references to links with identical text but containing different information.

Reason for inaccessible content

As a university campus, we maintain a very extensive and diverse range of web content; therefore, errors cannot be entirely avoided. The majority of this content was published before September 23, 2018, and therefore does not meet current accessibility standards. Various types of content, such as file formats from office applications (PDF files) created before September 23, 2018, have not yet been converted. In some cases (particularly with older versions of user information, annual reports, or newsletters that are only available in paper form), digitization and subsequent conversion to an accessible format is currently not possible. The transition to accessible websites is already underway. The provision of videos with audio transcripts has not yet been completed due to the size of the video archive.

Date of Creation

This statement was last updated on March 20, 2026. The assessment is based on a self-assessment conducted with third-party support.
