Supporting Students with Disabilities Series: AccessMSOR: report on inaugural meeting

The Accessing Maths, Stats and OR (AccessMSOR) Working Group was established to investigate the support needs of HE students with disabilities studying MSOR subjects. Membership of the working group is diverse, including disability support staff, lecturers, disability consultants, postgraduate students and a representative from the MSOR Network. The group communicates primarily via an email list and will meet face-to-face periodically. The inaugural meeting was held at Nottingham Trent University in May. What follows is a summary of the key points that were discussed at that meeting, which will form areas of further work for the group.
