The Disability Support Service

Welcome!

“Self-determined participation in society and the elimination of barriers to equal opportunities”- BMAS

A university for all - we are here!

Studying at a university involves special requirements for students with disability or chronic illness. Various aspects play a role: the accessibility of buildings and spaces, barrier-free communication, technical assistance, teacher support, compensation for disadvantages in all areas of study (such as exams), services and much more.

If these conditions are not adequately met, it may lead to discouragement and dropout. However, this does not have to be the case. At Saarland University, students and teachers can confidentially reach out to us at the Disability Support Service (KSB). 

We are happy to help you with your questions about studying with disability or mental and chronic illness. Consultations are provided in German and English languages.

The Disability Support Service (KSB) is a part of the Equal Opportunities and Diversity Management Unit  under the leadership of Estelle Klein.
