A presente pesquisa teve como objetivo identificar, por meio de um questionário, as dificuldades cotidianas de universitários canhotos e elencar suas propostas para solucionar os problemas levantados. Participaram deste estudo 135 estudantes canhotos, que responderam um questionário composto por oito perguntas abertas e cinco perguntas fechadas que englobavam informações sobre a lateralidade, atividades estudantis, laborais, de vida diária e a sugestão para melhoria em suas atividades. Verificou-se que as maiores dificuldades relatadas por estudantes universitários canhotos na vida cotidiana, no trabalho e no ambiente estudantil são, respectivamente, abrir latas, má disposição dos objetos no espaço e a inadequação das carteiras escolares. A fim de melhorar a execução de atividades nessas três esferas, as sugestões mais citadas estão relacionadas à melhoria/disponibilidade das carteiras para canhotos e o desenvolvimento de objetos adaptados para esse grupo. O estudo indica dados sobre dificuldades e sugestões que são coerentes entre si e as melhorias propostas são de fácil execução e de grande valia para essa população.
