The SLU websites consist of
All departments and other units have their own websites at www.slu.se.
You navigate SLU's websites by using the menu below the header area, or by using the buttons and links on the start page. The websites for staff and students respectively, can be accessed through the links at the top of the page. You can always see where in the site structure the current page is located by checking the breadcrumb trail at the top of each page, below the menu bar.
At present we recommend using Firefox or Chrome as browsers for the websites.
We want as many people as possible to be able to use SLU's websites, regardless of platform or any adaptation aids. However, we are aware that the sites have some accessibility problems.
Below is an account of how our websites meet the law on accessibility for digital public service, of known accessibility problems and how to report an accessibility problem.
We work constantly to improve our websites’ accessibility, but are aware that we have problems. Please let us know if you find issues that are not described below, or if you consider that we do not meet the requirements.
Also, please get in touch if you need content that is not available to you. We normally respond within two weekdays.

The Agency for Digital Government (DIGG) is the Swedish agency responsible for monitoring the compliance with the Public Sector Bodies (websites and mobile applications) Accessibility Regulations. If you are not happy with how we respond to your views, you can report this to DIGG.
SLU's websites meet the accessibility requirements for public sector bodies for the main part.
The following content on the websites is however not sufficiently accessible:
We have done a self-assessment (internal testing) of the websites. The most recent assessment was made on 18 September 2020, and the report was updated the same date.
The Division of Communication has the overall responsibility for content, structure and design of the SLU websites. The Division of Learning and Digitalisation manages the SLU student web. Each administrative unit, faculty, department, collaborative centre etc. is responsible for maintaining their own pages. Each page on the site should have information about who to contact in case of questions, as well as the date when the page was last updated.
Web pages on activities linked to SLU that are not part of the university website, such as those of collaborative centres, may have a different design and be managed differently.
