Designing an Inclusive Courses to Careers Workshop with Universal Design for Learning

Persistent barriers faced by disabled students in STEM highlights the need for a fundamental shift in how physics education is designed and delivered. Universal Design for Learning (UDL) offers a framework for fostering inclusive and equitable learning environments. This framework is central to the design of the Courses to Careers (C2C) workshop that addresses ableism in physics through faculty-student partnerships. By integrating UDL principles, the workshop enhances support for physics instructors in creating more accessible classrooms while equipping disabled students with tools to navigate STEM careers. This presentation examines the curriculum design process and key insights gained from applying UDL in the design of the workshop.
