You will develop expertise in working cooperatively to seek out information and apply your learning to situations relevant to occupational therapy practice. Your studies will draw from the disciplines of occupational science (the study of humans as occupational beings), as well as inter-professional education and occupational therapy practice.

You will complete 1000 hours of fieldwork to apply your knowledge and skills in a range of clinical and professional practice settings, and undertake a participatory community practice-based project or an Honours thesis.
