Advice and support for students with disabilities or chronic illnesses
According to the latest social survey by the German National Association for Student Affairs, conducted in academic year 2021, 16% of students at German universities have a health impairment that affects their ability to study.
These include:
- mental illnesses (65%)
- chronic somatic diseases (e.g. chronic inflammatory bowel disease, multiple sclerosis, rheumatism, chronic pain) (13%)
- multiple impairments (7%)
- other impairments, e.g. partial performance disorders (including dyslexia), hearing/speech and visual impairments (15%)
This means you are not alone if you have an impairment that makes your studies more difficult. The University of Passau offers students with disabilities one-on-one advice and support at every stage of their student career. In order to make teaching as accessible as possible for all students at the University of Passau, the advice service also offers information for lecturers.
