- The master of science degree in occupational therapy (OT) is an entry-level degree specifically created for people who have a B.A. or B.S. degree in another area of study and who meet the admission criteria. The graduate degree program is designed to be completed within three academic years and includes courses in occupational therapy theory and delivery systems, foundational courses in sciences (functional anatomy and neuroscience), human development, interpersonal and group skills, medical/social conditions, evaluation, documentation and intervention, research, and fieldwork (Level I Fieldwork [3 experiences], Level II Fieldwork [2 internships], and a Community Practice practicum experience). Students are required to complete a Critically Appraised Topic (CAT) research project and publicly present the findings.
