DCU is unique when it comes to autism because in 2018, it became the world's first designated autism-friendly university and plans were announced last year to make it an even friendlier campus for autistic staff and students with the launch of phase two of the autism-friendly project.
In this episode Louise is joined by Fiona Earley, the Autism Coordinator in DCU, and by Clíodhna Harrison, a DCU Computer Science graduate who found out she was autistic during her time in DCU.
Fiona talks about the research that has gone into the project and the changes that have been made on campus.
Clíodhna shares her experiences about how everyone she met in DCU was ‘doing their best to ensure that every neurodivergent student gets what they need, as well as educating others about neurodiversity.’
She says this sends a message of acceptance and equal opportunities.
