Post-Professional MS in Occupational Therapy Curriculum

The Occupational Therapy online master’s degree curriculum from Utica College broadens your professional knowledge base and offers excellent networking potential with a diverse group of peers and faculty from around the country. 

Our online classes are small and students and faculty work together closely in a virtual atmosphere designed to promote personal and professional development.

You can complete the 30 credit masters program in less than two years by completing six 8-week semesters each year. Students complete a two course research project at the end of the program in final preparation for the role of evidence-based practitioner.
