Transition to University for students on the spectrum in Australia

Did you commence an undergraduate degree at an Australian university in 2016, 2017, 2018 or 2019? Are you on the autism spectrum?

As part of a Doctor of Philosophy study, the project coordinators are keen to speak with you about your experiences of transition to and first year at the University. The purpose of this research is to help us to better understand the barriers and facilitators to transition to university for students on the autism spectrum in Australia.

If you are interested and willing to participate in a short interview, please contact Alison Nuske for more information. For more information, please refer to the flyer.
