Students with disabilities undertaking fieldwork / workplace learning

Some courses at UTS require students to undertake fieldwork (and/or workplace learning) as a prerequisite to satisfactory completion of the course. UTS is committed to making education accessible to people with disabilities, and will accommodate the needs of students with disabilities to the greatest extent possible in arrangements for fieldwork and workplace learning.

The University requires that the conduct of fieldwork is undertaken in a safe and responsible manner, in accordance with Fieldwork Guidelines.

Students who have a disability that may affect their ability to complete the fieldwork (and/or workplace learning) component of their course should discuss this prior to enrolment with the Special Needs Coordinator, who will make a referral to the Academic Liaison Officer or other suitable person within the relevant faculty.
