Support Services for Students<br />

Students with Disabilities and/or Specific<br />

Learning Difficulties<br />

Limerick Institute of Technology is proud of our record of<br />

access and progression of students with disabilities and/or<br />

specific learning difficulties. Students with educational<br />

support requirements are encouraged to contact the Disability<br />

Officer, Broze O’Donovan at 061 293112 or<br />

broze.odonovan@lit.ie, in advance of registration, to agree<br />

the supports needed. While there is no obligation to discuss<br />

your disability/requirements, we recommend that you contact<br />

us as from experience, we have found that this positively<br />

supports your transition to third level.<br />

Learning Support Unit<br />
