  • Studying with health impairments – am I included?

  • How do I organize my studies at my own pace? What can I change to better cope with the demands of my studies? Who or what can support me?

  • What academic adjustments are possible during my studies?

  • How can I pause my studies or organize them more individually in the event of a longer period of illness?

  • Who can receive study assistance and technical aids?

This event will be held in English, we also offer information events held in German.

If you need sign language interpreters, written interpreters or a description of visually presented information, please contact us - preferably as early as possible so that we can organize the implementation in good time.
