As an occupational therapist, you have the power to help people regain independence in their daily lives. This program allows you to begin your education focused on your career goals, so you’ll be well prepared to start treating patients on the first day of your new career.
In this professional pathway, you have the opportunity to earn a combined Bachelor of Science in Public Health and Master of Science in Occupational Therapy from MCPHS in five years instead of the traditional six. You'll spend the first three years on the MCPHS - Boston campus before transitioning to the MCPHS - Manchester campus where you’ll have the opportunity to work alongside professional experts in our advanced simulation laboratories and through a wide range of clinical experiences both on and off campus. You’ll learn how to build or restore patients’ abilities to perform daily tasks and educate them to optimize their independence. When you graduate, you’ll be eligible to sit for the National Board for Certification in Occupational Therapy exam and begin your rewarding career. |
