Occupational therapists serve patients of all ages in a variety of settings. Our students complete graduate-level coursework and 6 months of full-time clinical fieldwork. During clinical rotations, students visit rehabilitation facilities, long-term care facilities, sheltered workshops, homes, community agencies, and industrial sites. During this time students have the opportunity to experience patient setting they might enter upon graduation and licensure.
