Master of Science in Occupational Therapy

At Sacred Heart University, we offer a values-based educational approach to occupational therapy that is dynamic, engaging and transformative, led by exceptional faculty in state-of-the-art learning environments. Occupational therapy is a vibrant, growing profession that makes it possible for people to participate fully in their lives. Occupational therapists change lives. Occupational therapy improves the ability of individuals, groups, and populations to access and participate in the everyday activities and occupations they want, need, and are expected to do each day. When you earn your Master of Science in Occupational Therapy at SHU, you will learn to address the spiritual, social, emotional, physical, and cognitive needs of your clients, and to design occupation-based interventions that enable clients to meaningfully participate in their own work, school, play, home, society, and community lives.
