The curriculum is designed to provide an excellent education for students planning for professional roles as occupational therapy practitioners in traditional settings, as well as in areas of newly identified need. The program requires successful completion of academic courses and integrated fieldwork. The MSOT program includes two years (four semesters) of academic work, plus completion of 24 weeks of internship (Level II Fieldwork). The program is full time, and consists of daytime, weekday classes with some evening application sessions. Fieldwork hours are completed after the academic portion of the program, extending the program's official end by a minimum of six months, dependent upon fieldwork site availability.
The MSOT program begins in the fall semester, and courses are sequential. Therefore, we offer no options for spring entrance into the program. There are no summer courses. Clinical courses make extensive use of case examples, which are followed across the life course, rather than the traditional divisions by diagnosis (mental health, physical disabilities) or age group (pediatrics, geriatrics) 'and guide the introduction of relevant assessment, intervention, and systems issues as they would typically occur in relation to each part of the life course.
