Program Overview

Occupations are the meaningful activities that people do every day and occupational therapists help people to engage in their chosen occupations. Occupational therapists work with people from birth to death, to promote their ability to DO what they want and need to do. Occupational therapists offer hope, and provide solutions, so that individuals can live their lives engaging in the things that are important to them. Occupational therapists work in the hospital, in outpatient clinics, in the home, private businesses, and in the community for a variety of community organizations. The two largest practice settings are the public schools and extended care facilities or nursing homes.

The master's degree in occupational therapy (MSOT) is a two-year, 60 credit program, that when completed, allows the graduate to sit for the required national certification exam* to become a registered occupational therapist (OTR). The MSOT at Southern will enter its first class of 40 students in the summer of 2025.  Students will complete 4 academic semesters, including two summers, followed by the required 6 months of supervised fieldwork, prior to graduation.
