Inaccessible content
Non-compliance with the annex
- On some parts of the website, the focus indicator is not visible.
- The order in which focus moves across the page may be confusing. For example, it may not reach all visible elements in carousels unless the carousel is moved.
- Some links open in a new window without informing the user.
- Some content loses readability when zoomed to 200%.
- Some elements do not inform screen reader users whether a section is expanded or collapsed (this is indicated only by a change in the icon).
- Search filters for study programs have labels placed inside input fields, so the purpose of the field is not always visible.
- The video on the website does not have a text alternative or an audio description.
