职业治疗科

The 职业治疗 (OT) Program at CSUDH started off with a degree in Bachelor of Science (BS), which was awarded accreditation status by the 认证 Council for 职业治疗 Education (ACOTE) in 1998. The BSOT transitioned to an entirely new entry-level Master of Science in 职业治疗 (MSOT) in 2004 with accreditation awarded by ACOTE in 2006. Since then, the MSOT程序 has grown from the first graduating class of 23 in 2007 to more recent graduating cohorts of approximately 66-69 per year. Overall, the continued growth of the OT Program displays how the department is valued by the University as well as supported by our community and clinical affiliates. In 2019, the passing of AB 829 into law allowed our department to further expand and make accessible advanced education in occupational therapy at the doctoral level.

We are very proud of our program curriculum and confident that it will provide a great foundation for occupational therapy professional competence and success. 通过团队的努力, 职业治疗系的教员, students, 员工努力追求最高水平的成就.
