BSc (Hons) Occupational Therapy

... United Kingdom
... University of Worcester

Course Overview

Occupational therapists play a key role in helping people regain, maintain or improve their participation in life. Often they work with people whose ability to take part in life has been impacted by injury, disability, or illness. Occupational therapists also work with individuals and groups whose ability and freedom to take part in life are restricted by other circumstances. This includes those who are detained in prison, or in immigration centers, as well as people who are homeless or refugees.

At Worcester, we value compassionate, effective, and ethical care. Our occupational therapy degree will equip you with the skills and experience you will need to support others to live the life of their choice. We have a strong focus on leadership in our program, helping you to develop both as a therapist and as a dynamic practitioner throughout your career.

The Occupational Therapy BSc (Hons) will be underpinned by a School-wide commitment to interprofessional learning that aims to develop skilled and compassionate practitioners who have the confidence to engage with and promote professional, social, and political change in health and social care. This course runs in parallel with the Physiotherapy BSc (Hons) integrating collaborative working, and evidence-based person-centered practice.
