This article provides a review of accessibility in buildings belonging to Ciudad Universitaria, handicapped spaces, main parking lots and a proposal for a Central Plaza on the campus of the largest university in the country. The research has a mixed approach. The problem of universal accessibility is qualitative; however, surveys were conducted to know the perception of students regarding accessibility. A population of 348 disabled persons registered in the second quarter of 2014 was recorded. A diagnosis of all 34 buildings that make up the campus, 28 parking spaces, 9 crosswalks and all ramps was made. Subsequently, all and each of the solutions to make the area accessible were projected. The proposal suggested a central parking lot for 600 vehicles and was used to project a large entrance plaza. In this paper, we share the results of this research as a form of contribution with the authorities of the UNAH, so that according to their priorities and programming they can carry out the improvements that will come to benefit the student population.
