For experienced occupational therapists or students who want to pursue doctoral-level research in rehabilitation science, we offer three graduate-level programs – Clinical Doctorate in Occupational Therapy (OTD), Low Vision Rehabilitation Graduate Certificate, and PhD in Rehabilitation Science.

The OTD program, a post-professional degree, is not an entry-level program and was designed to provide in-depth training in specialized areas for experienced occupational therapists. Students interested in the field of low vision rehabilitation science can opt to pursue the OTD, Low Vision Rehabilitation Graduate Certificate, or both. We also offer the PhD in Rehabilitation Science, a joint program with the Department of Physical Therapy, for students who are interested in pursuing research careers in this area.
