OTR 101 - Introduction to the Occupational Therapy Profession I

This foundational course will introduce the student to occupational therapy (OT) by examining the history, philosophical base, and frames of reference that form the basis for the profession, enabling the student to articulate the core values and beliefs of OT. In addition, students will have the opportunity to observe therapy sessions in the on-campus clinic with people who are working to develop, improve, or regain function in their life skills. In-class discussions will help students to apply observations to concepts of OT practice. Additional fee required. Course codes: AF. Prerequisite: Matriculated in OT program. Corequisite: OTR*101L.
