What web accessibility is
An accessible site allows visitors with disabilities to browse the site with the same or a similar level of ease and enjoyment as other visitors. This can be achieved with the capabilities of the system on which the site is operating, and through assistive technologies.

Declaration of partial compliance with the standard due to third-party content
The accessibility of certain pages on the site depend on contents that do not belong to the organization, and instead belong to the respective described organizations. The following pages are affected by this: the Fellowship Opportunities, Scholarship Opportunities, Technical Networks and Challenges, Unique Job Opportunities, and Graduate Programs pages. We therefore declare partial compliance with the standard for these pages.
