The MS?OT program is a two-year professional program designed to prepare students for practice. It is accredited by the Accreditation Council on Occupational Therapy Education (ACOTE-4720 Montgomery Lane, Suite 200, Bethesda, MD 20814). At the master's level, two years of didactic classroom learning is followed by 24 weeks of supervised fieldwork experiences in a variety of settings. This program meets the requirements for OTR certification set by the National Board for Certification of Occupational Therapy (NBCOT). The occupational therapy program resides in the Department of Kinesiology and offers two graduate professional programs, an entry-level master of science (MS?OT) and a post-professional doctor of occupational therapy (OTD). Occupational therapists interested in pursuing advanced research training may also apply to the M.S./Ph.D. in Kinesiology?Occupational Science Track. The purpose of the graduate program is to prepare clinicians, researchers, and teachers who possess a solid foundation in both the theoretical and applied aspects of the disciplines of occupational therapy and science.
