Accessibility at TU Graz

The understanding of disabilities at TU Graz is the following: "People are not disabled – barriers disable people”. Due to that, the university is committed to creating an environment that is as barrier-free as possible in every aspect. This applies to study and working conditions, structural measures, IT and websites. Last but not least, it is important to break down barriers in people's minds.

A barrier-free environment promotes equal opportunities, diversity and inclusion in education by ensuring that all members of TU Graz can develop their full potential.

Accessible Working is a service point for existing and future employees of TU Graz, which supports employees in the best possible way in their everyday work by providing information and awareness-raising measures as well as the removal of barriers.
