Department for Students with Disabilities and Chronic Illnesses (BUCK)

The Department for Students with a Disability and/or Chronic Illness (BUCK) is the contact point for students who encounter barriers in their studies due to an impairment (whether physical or psychological).

Do you have problems with exam formats, deadlines, etc.? Do you need technical equipment? You just want to talk to someone neutral and describe your situation? Feel free to contact us and we will try to find a solution. For many examination matters, for example, there is compensation for disadvantages.

In addition to our counselling services, we organise lectures and workshops on various topics (e.g. eating disorders, depression, sleep disorders, sign language courses). We also have a small library in our office with non-fiction books and novels.

You can also find more information about studying with a disability, chronic or mental illness at the Central Student Advisory Service at: www.barrierefrei.uni-trier.de
