Support services for disadvantaged people

 

Elevators 

A panoramic elevator was built in Building 1 of the NBU - a modern architectural solution that breathes new life into the University building, allowing people with mobility problems to make full use of all spaces and resources of the five floors. The elevator is part of the project to ensure and facilitate the access of disadvantaged people to every corner of the University. Building 2 also has elevators that are adapted for the same purpose.

 

Ramps

Apart from these, three more easily transportable light aluminum ramps are provided for the needs of Building 2 and the University Theater. Building 1 and Building 2 can also be accessed via chain conveyors for wheelchairs.

The ramp in front of the coffee club of Building 1 provides access to the Aula, the cafe, the toilets. On the stairs of Building 2 there is a motorized platform that provides access to the classrooms, offices and coffee club in the building. A ramp was installed at the entrance of Building 1, at the side of the Library.
