The University promotes inclusive teaching that recognizes and values individual differences. We aim to establish a dialogue from the very beginning between the student, the SDDA, and faculty members in order to identify an appropriate study method and personalized learning strategies.

Measures and accommodations are agreed upon individually in collaboration with the SDDA, which assesses their necessity based on clinical documentation and the individual profile.

These measures are then formally communicated to the instructors by the delegated faculty member, authorizing their implementation during examinations. Please note that for certain accommodations, it is necessary to give adequate advance notice to allow for proper organization of the required measures.

Please note: the measures do not include any reduction of the academic syllabus.
