Helping People Get Back to the Lives They Want

A career in occupational therapy can be incredibly rewarding as you help others overcome barriers to active participation in daily life. As highly trained healthcare professionals, occupational therapists prioritize and adapt to individuals’ unique needs and goals to help them develop, recover, or maintain the skills needed for daily, independent living and working. Occupational therapists work with a wide variety of methodologies to help their clients with illnesses, injuries, and disabilities and may work in hospitals, rehabilitation facilities, schools, and nursing homes.

It delivers a quality education through a variety of methods to help you achieve your professional goals. Faculty bring their real-world, professional experience to actively engage you in a truly integrated learning experience through online courses and weekly, on-campus classes and labs along with fieldwork placements every semester.
