Abstract
The inclusion of people with disabilities in regular education is especially important. Higher education institutions have a social responsibility to facilitate the incorporation of these minorities in this level because they have no other training alternatives. There is a group of blind and visually impaired students in the various educational programs at the Universidad Estatal de Guayaquil. The current study's objective was to analyze the aids and instructional support needed by the target population for their effective inclusion in the university's programs. The case study is the methodological reference of the project. To accomplish our research objective, open-ended interviews were conducted with seven students registered in the institution. The interview results are presented as a cross analysis or contrasting cases, which reveal the degree of vision as an incident in their pathways, and the need for support that should be promoted at this University.
