The main concern of the Disabled Students' Support Office is the adjusting the university to the needs of the student. How the process works:
- Departament of International Relations (DIR) informs the Office for Disabled Students (ODS) of a disabled student arrival
- ODS asseses needs of a particular student
- ODS lists available forms of support and informs the student about them
- after consulting it with the student, DIR and ODS select needed forms of support and begin to implement them
Availabe forms of support:
- disabled student’s assistant
- toll-free hire of necessary equipment (such as: magnifying glasses, recorders etc.)
- adjusting forms of validation (written exam to verbal exam, using special software while taking a written exam etc.)
- providing with digitalized versions of textbooks
- accommodation in dorm rooms adjusted to disabled persons’ needs
