The Elimination of Discrimination against Persons with Disabilities Law (“the Disabilities Discrimination Act”) was enacted in June, 2013 and came into force on April 1st, 2016.　Under this law, the
elimination of any discriminatory treatment against persons with disabilities must be promoted, and reasonable accommodation for the students with disabilities must be provided by all national universities,
while private universities are less obliged to make the same efforts.　This paper aims to examine career support for the students with developmental disorders, whose numbers have been rapidly increasing in universities, and consider it from the viewpoint of career development as part of university education.　As a result of surveying research on career support for university students with developmental disorders, this paper points out that sufficient support has not been provided in Japan.
This paper reports on the current situation and issues of career education at universities and shows that career education for female college students is not sufficient.　Also, career education should be
provided to meet the diverse needs of students, such as making universal design available to students with developmental disorders.
