How accessible the website is

We want as many people as possible to be able to use this website. For example, that means you should be able to:

• Navigate most of the website using just a keyboard
• Listen to most of the website using a screen reader (including JAWS, NVDA and VoiceOver).
• Resize to the size of your window, and display a readable text size whichever device you are using
• Zoom in up to 175% without the text spilling off the screen

If you wish to make use of the accessible features of this site, we have provided some guidance that will provide you with further information and aid you in accessing them. AbilityNet also has advice on making your device easier to use if you have a disability.

We work to achieve and maintain WCAG 2.1 AA standards, but it is not always possible for all our content to be accessible. There over 1,000 staff at Imperial who have access to publish content on the website. We know some of this content may not be fully accessible, for example:

• Many PDFs and other documents are not fully compatible with screen readers
• Most video content does not have captions, transcriptions or audio descriptions

Where content is not accessible, we will state a reason, warn users and offer alternatives.
