Study: "best3 - Studying with a health impairment"
Around 16% of students in Germany have study-related impairments.
In 2023, the German Center for Higher Education Research and Science Studies published the third study on the situation of students with a health impairment that makes studying difficult in Germany. In the study, the initiators explored the question of which barriers hinder studying. What needs arise for students? What has changed since the last survey in 2017?
Further information on the results of the study can be found on the DSW website.
