Disability services<br />

At <strong>QUT</strong>, a disability is defined as any impairment, injury or<br />

medical condition, which may affect a student’s ability <strong>to</strong><br />

undertake a program of study successfully.<br />

Some, such as physical or sensory disabilities may be<br />

obvious, while others may not be apparent unless disclosed<br />

by the student (e.g. diabetes, epilepsy, dyslexia or mental<br />

health difficulties etc).<br />

A disability may be permanent, short-term or episodic in<br />

nature.<br />

• Temporary or short-term eg broken limbs, glandular fever<br />

• Episodic or permanent eg wheelchair user, psychiatric<br />

condition, learning difficulty, epilepsy<br />
