Faculty & Staff Support
The AccessMU staff strive to keep all Miami University faculty and staff informed of accessibility issues and how it affects you. We hope you will take advantage of the various Miami resources available.
In addition, the Office of the Provost provides a Faculty Guide for Students with Disabilities. This guide is to help faculty and academic advisors enable students with disabilities to find their place at Miami, engage with the community, and succeed and reach academic and personal success.
Course Design
Your documents should be accessible so that all students can access the course information and content. If you have a document that you are not sure is accessible, please visit our Document Accessibility Resources. If you have any questions or would like training, contact the AccessMU Center at 513-529-0200 or AccessMU@MiamiOH.edu.
Roles & Responsibilities
Syllabus
The design of your syllabus can influence accessibility. A few changes could mean the difference between comprehension and confusion. The Office of the Provost provides tips for designing your syllabus to be accessible, key components to include when writing your syllabus, and tips for motivating students to read your syllabus.
