We firmly believe that the internet should be available and accessible to anyone and are committed to providing a website that is accessible to the broadest possible audience, regardless of ability.
To fulfill this, we aim to adhere as strictly as possible to the World Wide Web Consortium’s (W3C) Web Content Accessibility Guidelines 2.1 (WCAG 2.1) at the AA level. These guidelines explain how to make web content accessible to people with a wide array of disabilities. Complying with those guidelines helps us ensure that the website is accessible to blind people, people with motor impairments, visual impairment, cognitive disabilities, and more.
This website utilizes various technologies that are meant to make it as accessible as possible at all times. We utilize an accessibility interface that allows persons with specific disabilities to adjust the website’s UI (user interface) and design it to their personal needs.
Additionally, the website utilizes an AI-based application that runs in the background and optimizes its accessibility level constantly. This application remediates the website’s HTML, adapts its functionality and behavior for screen-readers used by blind users, and for keyboard functions used by individuals with motor impairments.

Screen-reader and keyboard navigationOur website implements the ARIA attributes (Accessible Rich Internet Applications) technique, alongside various behavioral changes, to ensure blind users visiting with screen-readers can read, comprehend, and enjoy the website’s functions. As soon as a user with a screen-reader enters your site, they immediately receive a prompt to enter the Screen-Reader Profile so they can browse and operate your site effectively. Here’s how our website covers some of the most important screen-reader requirements:
we run a process that learns the
website’s components from top to bottom, to ensure ongoing compliance even when
updating the website. In
this
process, we provide screen-readers with meaningful data using the ARIA set of
attributes. For example, we
provide accurate form labels; descriptions for actionable icons (social media
icons, search icons, cart
icons,
etc.); validation guidance for form inputs; element roles such as buttons,
menus, modal dialogues (popups),
and others.
Additionally, the background process scans all of the
website’s images. It provides
an accurate and meaningful image-object-recognition-based description as an ALT
(alternate text) tag for
images that are not described. It will also extract texts embedded within the
image using an OCR (optical
character recognition) technology. To turn on screen-reader adjustments at any
time, users need only to
press
the Alt+1 keyboard combination. Screen-reader users also get automatic
announcements to turn the
Screen-reader
mode on as soon as they enter the website.
These adjustments are
compatible with popular screen
readers
such as JAWS, NVDA, VoiceOver, and TalkBack.
this profile enables people with epilepsy to safely use the website by eliminating the risk of seizures resulting from flashing or blinking animations and risky color combinations.
this profile adjusts the website so that it is accessible to the majority of visual impairments such as Degrading Eyesight, Tunnel Vision, Cataract, Glaucoma, and others.
this profile provides various assistive features to help users with cognitive disabilities such as Autism, Dyslexia, CVA, and others, to focus on the essential elements more easily.
this profile significantly reduces distractions and noise to help people with ADHD, and Neurodevelopmental disorders browse, read, and focus on the essential elements more easily.
this profile adjusts the website to be compatible with screen-readers such as JAWS, NVDA, VoiceOver, and TalkBack. A screen-reader is installed on the blind user’s computer, and this site is compatible with it.
this profile enables motor-impaired persons to operate the website using the keyboard Tab, Shift+Tab, and the Enter keys. Users can also use shortcuts such as “M” (menus), “H” (headings), “F” (forms), “B” (buttons), and “G” (graphics) to jump to specific elements.
We aim to support as many browsers and assistive technologies as possible, so our users can choose the best fitting tools for them, with as few limitations as possible. Therefore, we have worked very hard to be able to support all major systems that comprise over 95% of the user market share, including Google Chrome, Mozilla Firefox, Apple Safari, Opera and Microsoft Edge, JAWS, and NVDA (screen readers), both for Windows and MAC users.
Notes, comments, and feedbackDespite our very best efforts to allow anybody to adjust the website to their needs, there may still be pages or sections that are not fully accessible, are in the process of becoming accessible, or are lacking an adequate technological solution to make them accessible. Still, we are continually improving our accessibility, adding, updating, improving its options and features, and developing and adopting new technologies. All this is meant to reach the optimal level of accessibility following technological advancements. If you wish to contact the website’s owner, please use the website's form
Interest in enrolling at the Faculty of Architecture of the University of Montenegro continues to grow, surpassing the number of available places, which are often filled in the first round. This trend is expected to continue throughout this year.
At the University of Montenegro, which is celebrating its 50th anniversary under the slogan FuturUM this year, the Architecture study program was established in 2002. Initially integrated into the Faculty of Civil Engineering, it became an independent organizational unit of UCG four years later. Over more than two decades of existence, the faculty has produced experts capable of independently or in teams addressing the challenges of complex urban and architectural demands of modern society, contributing to shaping the spaces of the 21st century.
The integrated Architecture 5+0 program, internationally recognized, is tailored to the needs of students, enabling them to actively participate under the guidance of professors in domestic and international events, salons, and competitions in the field of urbanism and architecture. Often, students achieve significant success and win numerous awards at these events.
In addition to the local focus, the Faculty of Architecture of the University of Montenegro is also dedicated to preparing its students for the global market through internationalization, collaboration with renowned international institutions, implementation of international projects, and organizing guest lectures by well-known figures from the world of architecture.
Candidates for enrollment at the Faculty of Architecture must pass a supplementary exam consisting of two tests: a General Knowledge Test from various cultural areas relevant to architecture studies and a Spatial Relations and Spatial Logic Understanding Test. Both tests are evaluated individually, and the final grade represents the average of both tests. A negative grade in any of the tests excludes the candidate from further qualification processes. The minimum passing grade is 40% correct answers in each part of the exam. The exam is taken continuously over one day and lasts for four hours.
It is recommended that candidates prepare independently, using widely known literature in the field of architectural history, art history, materials from entrance exams of previous generations, and reliable internet sources to stay informed about current events in the world of architecture. The candidate ranking system is defined by the Regulations on the Conditions, Criteria, and Procedure for Enrollment in Undergraduate Studies at the University of Montenegro.
The faculty aims to prepare future master architects for successful scientific and professional careers. After graduation and obtaining the title of master of architecture, it is possible to engage in the preparation of planning and design documentation, on construction sites or in government administration, construction companies, real estate agencies, and in education as a professor. Additionally, it is possible to continue an academic career by enrolling in doctoral studies and engaging as an associate at the faculty until obtaining an academic title. After obtaining a license as a responsible designer and planner, an architect can establish their own practice or get involved in various activities related to the architectural profession.
For more information, candidates can consult the Student Informator or visit the website of the Faculty of Architecture, University of Montenegro.
