【Application Closed】Call for Researchers for the 2016 University Consortium Kyoto Designated Research Project
The University Consortium Kyoto (hereinafter referred to as the “Foundation”) has established designated research topics and conducts research by researchers in specialized fields with the aim of contributing to the improvement and review of projects, as well as new development and sophistication. This time, we are looking for researchers (research groups) who will work on the 2016 designated research project as follows.
Foundation-designated research project
We are looking for researchers to work on the following designated research projects. We look forward to receiving applications from more researchers. For details, please check the application guidelines below.“Research on the Role of the University Consortium Kyoto, a University Collaborative Organization for University Support for Students with Disabilities“
| Background on the theme |
With the reasonable accommodation provisions of the Act on the Elimination of Discrimination against Persons with Disabilities scheduled to come into effect in April 2016, the prohibition of discriminatory treatment of persons with disabilities and the prohibition of non-provision of reasonable accommodations will be mandatory at national universities and efforts at private universities. However, there are many issues, such as the fact that each student’s disability is different, the needs associated with it are diverse, the need for support at the time of enrollment, during school (study and student life), and job hunting, and the need for support across departments within the university. Currently, each university is accumulating knowledge and examples of reasonable accommodations that should be provided to each university, but there is a limit to the efforts of individual universities alone to respond to a wide variety of disabilities and a wide range of needs, and it is considered necessary to cooperate with the relevant departments of each school and to have a mechanism for sharing information. Therefore, this time, we will conduct a fact-finding survey of the efforts of the Foundation’s member schools and advanced cases in other countries and regions, identify issues and understand their needs, and use them as clues to consider the role and direction that the Foundation should play in supporting students with disabilities. |
| Outline of the research sought |
(1) Survey on the actual situation of support for students with disabilities at Foundation member schools. |
| Image of utilization of research results |
(1) Establish a collaborative organization that connects university departments that provide support for students with disabilities, external support organizations, companies, and governments. |
Eligibility
Assume that you meet the following requirements:
・Surveys and research by individuals or groups will be conducted.
・The researcher (in the case of a group, the principal investigator) must be a full-time faculty member of a university or junior college affiliated with the Foundation.
・Researchers or members of the group shall have a high level of expertise in the content of the designated research topic.
・After adoption, a contract research contract will be concluded between the researcher’s university or junior college and the foundation, and the department in charge of the research and research expenses will be managed by the department in charge of the researcher (in the case of a group). When applying, please coordinate with the department in charge of your university in advance.
