Adapting and Advancing Postsecondary Education for Autistic Students

SIG Leader: Brad Cox SIG Co-Leaders: Brett Nachman & Jiedi Lei Although between 32% and 50% of autistic youth pursue postsecondary education, studies exploring postsecondary enrollment, campus experiences, or employment are limited. Through working group discussions and digitally-facilitated collaborations, SIG will specifically explore research questions, conceptual models, data sources, and implications for policy and practice. The SIG will address cultural differences in translating research to practice and the challenge of advancing researcher-stakeholder partnerships to improve access, experiences, and outcomes for autistic postsecondary students.
