Universal design
UniSC values the principles of universal design and actively strives to implement the seven principles in teaching and learning, and workplace environments.
Student resources
UniSC has designed a suite of audio/visual resources to provide UniSC students, staff and visitors alike with an understanding of how various behaviours or practices could constitute discrimination or harassment, and how they may even affect the health and wellbeing of an individual.
Supporting staff with a disability
UniSC is committed to creating an inclusive environment that facilitates equitable access and full participation in employment and education. Staff who have a temporary or permanent disability are encouraged to discuss any issues with their supervisor in the first instance so that the necessary supports can be established. UniSC welcomes applications from prospective staff with disabilities and will implement reasonable adjustments to enable equitable access and participation in the recruitment process.
