Introduction

The Entry-Level Professional Master of Arts degree program is designed for students with bachelor’s degrees in fields other than occupational therapy. If you are already a certified or board-eligible occupational therapist, please see information about our Post-Professional On-Campus Master’s degree program. In your two years of study, you will complete three practice immersions in Adult Physical Rehabilitation, Mental Health, and Pediatrics to graduate as a general practitioner of occupational therapy. In addition, the elective options offered in the second year are taught by leaders in diverse practice areas and provide you with an in-depth education in six potential specialties.  Our Division is dedicated to expanding and refining mental health occupational therapy practice. The faculty members who teach our mental health curriculum have extensive practice experience in providing occupation-centered services in this field. In furthering occupational therapy practice in mental health, we have developed innovative programs to address community reintegration and post-traumatic stress disorder in redeployed veterans, to reduce family violence, and to enable at-risk youth to overcome daily challenges and lead productive lives. In addition, we offer a variety of other opportunities for clinical experience in a broad range of mental health community settings as part of the educational experience in this specialty area.
