Annotation: Assessing the social integration of students with hearing impairments is an important component of monitoring the effectiveness of the educational model implemented for these students by the university. The study proposes an algorithm for assessing the social integration of hearing impaired students, based on the identification of three key parameters: attitude toward integration (declared level of acceptance of the environment); well-being in the university environment (socio-psychological adaptation); behavioral component (identity – communica- tion – inter action). The algorithm’s parameters are operationalized through specific indicators, allowing for a quantitative assessment of integration processes. A socio-psychological well-being index has been introduced, allowing for a numerical assessment of a student’s degree of adaptation to the university environment. An em- pirical survey-based study was conducted at Bauman Moscow State Technical University, covering both hearing and hard-of-hearing students. The results were processed using linear statistical analysis and multidimensional scaling. The study demonstrated the effectiveness of the university’s approaches to educating hard-of-hearing students in terms of their social integration. A method for calculating the Student Social Well-Being Index at the university is proposed. The work is aimed at developing inclusive education and can serve as a model for the implementation of similar systems for monitoring the social adaptation of students with disabilities.
