Introduction
The Master of Occupational Therapy (MOT) program is an entry-level program for Certified Occupational Therapy Assistants (COTAs) with bachelor’s degrees who would like to become registered Occupational Therapists (OTRs). Students will attend five semesters of blended instruction, combining online with on-campus delivery, followed by two twelve-week Fieldwork experiences. These courses and fieldwork experiences allow the student to graduate with the MOT degree and sit for the National Board of Certification for Occupational Therapy registration exam. Students who obtain a passing score on the exam will become registered occupational therapists (OTRs), eligible for state licensure. Students will be admitted to the COTA-to-MOT hybrid program once a year in the Fall semester.
