Disability support services

Through the Center of Student Development, CUT offers support services for students with disabilities or chronic illnesses, ensuring their rights as equal members of the student community and improving their quality of life during their studies. The support provided to each student is personalised, addressing their individual needs and considering the severity and specific circumstances of their situation.

Services include traffic attendants, text enlargement and translation, transcription for written exams, special equipment, and practical accommodations for lectures and exams (e.g., extensions, ignoring spelling errors, or dedicated spaces). Individual tutoring is also offered in study rooms, which is conducted by qualified staff or advanced-year students. Additional measures are implemented based on specific needs.

In 2023, support was provided to 127 students with blindness or severe vision problems, deafness or severe hearing difficulties, wheelchair bound or movement problems, serious psychiatric or psychological issues, and other significant health problems.
