Professional Program
The Professional Entry-Level Master's Degree Program prepares students for generalist practice in the field of occupational therapy. The Program has two tracks to accommodate students who are accepted with or without an undergraduate degree. TRACK ONE is designed for undergraduate students who have not earned a baccalaureate degree, and TRACK TWO is designed for students who have earned a BS or a BA degree in a field other than occupational therapy. The Program model combines a Baccalaureate Degree in Occupational Science with a Master of Science Degree in Occupational Therapy (BSOS/MSOT). Following completion of the academic and fieldwork components of the Program, the student will be prepared to perform the duties of an entry-level occupational therapist.
Undergraduate students are eligible to earn a BSOS degree in four years (including one summer session) and an MSOT degree in the fifth year (including one summer session). The Program also provides an accelerated option for eligible undergraduate students. In the accelerated option, students can complete a BSOS degree in three years (including three summers), and an MSOT degree in the fourth year (including the summer session).
Graduate students are eligible to earn an MSOT degree in two and one-half years (including three summers).
