"Creating a culture of accessibility in the sciences provides insight and advice on integrating students with disabilities in the STEM fields. Each chapter features research and best practices, interwoven with experiential narratives. Creating a culture of accessibility in the sciences is reflective of the diversity of STEM disciplines (life and physical sciences, engineering and mathematics) and of cross-disability perspectives (including physical, sensory, learning, mental health, chronic medical and developmental disabilities). This is a useful resource for STEM faculty and university administrators working with students with disabilities, students with disabilities interested in STEM education and careers, and STEM industry professional interested in accommodating employees with disabilities."-- Page [4] of cover
