Currently, at Wroclaw Tech, there are about 316 students and PhD students with a disability certificate, and it is more difficult to estimate the number of students with so-called special needs. Currently, there are more than 115 people with special needs registered with the Department of Accessibility and Support for People with Disabilities (DDO). Still, they are certainly not all the people in our community. These students are often reluctant to request to consider their needs in the learning process. Special needs may be related to the way classes are conducted, credit organizing, or the preparation of teaching materials.

Everyone can benefit from free and anonymous psychological support, available in Polish and English both inside and outside the University. Information about this is available on the Department of Accessibility and Support for People with Disabilities (DDO) website. We also organize psychological workshops for students.  them to participate. The easiest way to book a counseling session is to use the website.

More than 20 units at Wroclaw Tech, including all Faculties, have appointed Accessibility Leaders - persons who can provide support in dealing with the problems of students and all those with special needs at the university. These are trained individuals to go with any difficult issue. Take advantage of this opportunity and look out for the cards of the Accessibility Leaders from your unit.

Please read the manuals developed for you on various aspects of working with people with special needs at the University (available in Polish) or watch the videos dedicated to the accessibility of Wroclaw University of Science and Technology, which deal with the support of people with special needs and were created at our University. The videos featured people working at Wroclaw Tech, our students, and the alumni, and two of them are available with English subtitles.

At Wroclaw University of Science and Technology, solutions have been put in place to facilitate the functioning of people who are in the process of gender transition. Those who are interested in obtaining such support are asked to contact a DDO representative by email.
