Abstract
Universal design for learning (UDL) guides the developers of the technology-driven international university to design flexible academic programs and design features of the supporting academic units. Faculty, staff, and administrators share a moral responsibility to enable all people to access educational opportunities. Adherence to UDL guidelines ensures accessible academic programs and acknowledges that humans vary in their capacity and location to receive educational and research experiences. The chapter first examines transformational features of the technology-driven internal university, describes the UDL framework, and applies the UDL guidelines to academic programs (UDL-C) and administrative units (UDL-A). Recommendations and further research are suggested applying UDL across a technology-driven international university.
