Digital accessibility is in a continuous development process and is gradually being implemented at Clausthal University of Technology.

  • Mr. Brinkwerth (Computing Center)
  • Mr. Kiel (Computer Center)
  • Mr. Müller (Computer Center)

  • Mr. Ahlers (Legal Office)
  • Ms. Mathieu (Press Office)
  • Ms. Exner (Press Office)
  • Ms. Jana Mühler (Department 4)
  • Dr. Schaffel-Mancini (Equal Opportunities Office)

The team's first project was to implement many elements of accessibility on the university's website. As a result, Clausthal University of Technology's website was made accessible on time in accordance with the requirements of conformity level AA.

Depending on the topic currently being dealt with in the working group, further experts from Clausthal University of Technology will be invited.
