Lab, Fieldwork, and Clinical Work Accommodations

Student Disability Resources (SDR) determines accommodations for lab, fieldwork, and clinical settings in consultation with site supervisors and/or the student’s graduate program. This collaborative approach ensures that accommodations are individualized and appropriate to the academic and professional demands of the setting.

Accommodations

Examples include:

Accessible lab, field, or clinical sites
Assistive technology (e.g., speech-to-text software, tactile markings, large print displays, magnification lenses, digital zoom)
Modified equipment or lab procedures (e.g., accessible lab instrumentation, adjustable desks or stools)
Flexible scheduling for labs or clinical rotations
Recording discussions or using paper/pen to take notes
