Course Info

Summary

Many of us take our independence for granted, comfortably performing all kinds of tasks and activities at home, school, work and in the community. For someone with an injury, illness, disability or psychosocial issues, it can be a different story. A qualified Occupational Therapist, or OT, can make a difference to that person’s restricted lifestyle. An OT helps people of all ages to develop, sustain, or restore participation in their day to day activities and improve their quality of life. If you’re a good communicator and a creative thinker with an interest in science, this might be the career for you. One of the best things about studying Occupational Therapy at ECU is starting your practical experience in your first year. At ECU you’ll gain valuable learning experiences in a range of settings and with people with differing needs through fieldwork placements all throughout the 4 year course. During your fieldwork placements, you’ll integrate your growing occupational therapy knowledge, skills and professional attitudes, while being supervised and assessed by registered occupational therapists.
