Students who are entitled to auxiliary aids and compensatory/ dispensatory measures under current regulations regarding disabilities and DSA in university settings may take advantage of them by submitting a formal and explicit request.

Through the appropriate form, it is possible to request an educational tutor, or aids and services to support academic life, or even aids to be used for a profit exam. 

CERIP's psychological support services are also reserved for students with disabilities and DSAs.

Request for aids

 

Unime lecturers are required to implement a teaching strategy aimed at making the course of study concretely usable for all, on equal terms, promoting the autonomy of each student, including through personalized teaching with the necessary measures.

The Department's reference lecturer for disabilities/DSA is the figure of reference, for faculty and students, for the appropriate and permanent implementation of the necessary measures.
