Master of Science in Occupational Therapy

Program Overview

The Master of Science in occupational therapy curriculum is designed to provide students with an educational experience with focus on a modified problem-based philosophy of education and general concepts about adult learners. This process acknowledges that: 1) skills must be achieved and maintained through the acquisition of knowledge acquired through research; and 2) foundational knowledge is best retained and applied when learned in a meaningful context of practice problems. Therefore, the curriculum is designed to impart relevant content and stimulate a creative and critical graduate experience.

This is a two and a half-year professional program designed to prepare occupational therapy practitioners who work in a variety of settings, have a broad base of knowledge serving consumers of all ages, and can critically appraise health science literature. They will also be able to apply appropriate principles and procedures to the evaluation, interpretation, and intervention processes. They will understand use of current trends in clinical practice and demonstrate knowledge of and sensitivity to culturally diverse populations and their attitude towards health care.
