With UniSQ’s Bachelor of Occupational Therapy (Honours) you will learn to design and deliver high-quality occupational therapy (OT) assessment and interventions to people, their families and communities. As one of the fastest growing registered allied health professions, occupational therapists work with individuals, families, and communities across the lifespan to help people with injuries, developmental difficulties, illness, chronic health conditions or psychosocial needs to function in their environment. You can become a leader in the delivery of digital health care to the many people who have difficulty accessing face to face health services. Gain comprehensive training in OT knowledge and skills and put theory into practice when completing 1000 hours of supervised clinical placement required for your occupational therapy registration. Choose between a project or research option in the honours pathway. For more information, visit Bachelor of Occupational Therapy (Honours) at UniSQ.
