Universal Design in Higher Education

While colleges and universities increasingly draw upon the concept of Universal Design to create an ideal learning environment, it can be challenging to apply the concept practically in the classroom.

Further, this brief describes different approaches used by universities to garner faculty interest and offer effective training in Universal Design.
