In 2021, the revised Act on the Elimination of Discrimination against Persons with Disabilities was enacted, and in order to realize a society where everyone can live in peace regardless of whether they have a disability or not, all businesses are required to implement "reasonable accommodation" to guarantee equal opportunities for people with disabilities. In order to guarantee equal learning and employment opportunities for people with disabilities (including those with chronic or intractable diseases), our university provides necessary and appropriate modifications and adjustments tailored to each individual, depending on the type and degree of their disability, and the purpose, content, and function of classes and research activities, etc., to the extent that does not impose an excessive burden.
