Students receive a strong foundation in the concept of occupation early in the program and subsequent coursework is structured to provide a holistic orientation to occupational 治疗实践.  Participation in occupation is the desired outcome for all recipients of occupational therapy services. Participation in occupation is broadly defined, so courses address practice in a variety of settings, both traditional and emerging. 的 addition of a two-course sequence in community-based practice provides strong linkages to the local community, including programs where occupational therapy has not traditionally been available, and provides students with a variety of opportunities to engage with clients and service providers in creative problem-solving contexts.

A lifespan orientation to occupational 治疗实践 was chosen rather than organization according to traditional practice areas in order to emphasize the holistic nature 当代实践. Course content addressing professional behaviors and research/evidence-based practice provided throughout 课程 assists students in advancing critical analysis and leadership skills. 的 curriculum supports the mission and vision of the department and the university in preparing occupational therapy leaders who serve their communities through both scholarship and practice.
