Departmental contact persons

Each department of the University of Bologna has a contact person for students with disabilities and learning disorders.

The role of the Contact Persons is to serve as a point of reference for students with special needs, being closer to and specifically informed of their particular situation, i.e. the degree programme and the physical and organisational facilities attended.
These contact persons can serve as an effective “bridge” between the students and other teachers in the Department, intercepting the special needs of certain students and referring them to our Service for appropriate support.
