Accessibility of buildings
In order to raise awareness and inform all those who use the university campuses about the accessibility of buildings, the university provides information on their level of accessibility.
A comprehensive, reliable and simple overview of campus accessibility.
For each building, a series of eight pictograms, each representing different types of frailty or disabling situations, provide information on its accessibility. The symbol is displayed in one of three colours and is associated with a letter:
A - Green: the building is easily accessible;
B - Yellow: the building is partially accessible or accessible with assistance;
C - Red: the building is not accessible.
Example of the main administration building, parvis Paul Sabatier, Toulouse Rangueil campus:
These symbols are displayed at the building entrances (provided that they have been subject to an accessibility assessment).
Detailed assessments and photos of the building’s accessibility are also available on the PictoAccess website to give you a more accurate picture of the facilities.
Each page has a “Contribute” tab, which allows people to give their own opinion on the accessibility of the building.
