Occupational therapy (OT) is a health profession whose distinct value is “to improve health and quality of life through facilitating participation and engagement in occupations, the meaningful, necessary, and familiar activities of everyday life” (AOTA, 2015). Occupational therapy practitioners work with people across their lifespan to promote, restore, and maintain physical, mental, developmental, and behavioral health and to adapt to the effects of disease, illness, or disability.
Over the course of 36 months, the Doctor of Occupational Therapy (OTD) program will cover the concepts, theory, and practice of occupational therapy with well-known professors and practitioners in healthcare communities worldwide. The program consists of both academic coursework and fieldwork experiences that will equip you with the skills to make a difference in people’s lives and in the occupational therapy profession.
