Disability and accessibility
Bern University of Applied Sciences promotes equal opportunities of people with a disability or a chronic illness. We endeavour to make daily life and access as barrier-free as possible for students and employees with disabilities.
Individual solutions and assistance
Since the needs of people with a disability can differ widely depending on the requirements, we strive to provide individual solutions and assistance. In addition to removing obstacles to mobility, this also involves sensitivity in dealing with mental and chronic illnesses and the possibility of compensating for disadvantages during studies.
