Hi Avinash,
This is in response to your second query. I am attaching a link below that
has a list of the disability studies centres and departments in North
America:
http://disabilitystudies.syr.edu/resources/programsinds.aspx

With regard to your first question, I know that NALSAR university of law in
Hyderabad has a Disability Studies Centre and I believe there is one in
Kerala though i'm not sure where. It may be M.G.University. I know that the
Equal Opportunity Cell in DU conducts some certificate programmes in
disability related issues.
Two or three universities advertised teaching positions under the title
Disability Studies but I don't think they moved ahead with their
recruitment or even with the establishment of centres. These include
Ambedkar University Delhi and University of Hyderabad.

I am attaching below the link to the PhD in Disability Studies programme
offered at the University of Illinois at Chicago (UIC):
http://www.ahs.uic.edu/dhd/academics/phd.php

I studied at the above mentioned university (UIC) so please feel free to
contact me off list in case you require further information.

All the best at JNU with the proposed project!

Shilpaa

Dear Access Indians

Jawaharlal Nehru University is mulling to establish Centre for
Disability Studies.
And we are busy in formulating proposal for the said demand.
But I thought it is pertinent to seek your guidance and experiences
before executing the plan.
I have few queries, hope will be met here.

1. How many universities in India have Centre for disability studies?
and how these centres are functioning?
Your experience/sharing will be highly beneficial.

2. How many universities in UK/USA  have Centre for disability studies
as separate domain?
And any member here has any experience of visiting those universities?
Please, enlighten

and finally, please feel free to give your suggestion, because solid
foundation is the cornerstone for any institution to produce
excillence in terms of quality output.
