MSc Occupational Therapy (pre-registration)

Internationally recognised, this programme explores both the theoretical and practical contexts of occupational therapy in today’s society.



Occupational Therapists are skilled professionals who help people of all ages to carry out activities they need or want to do however, as a result of physical or mental illness, disability or ageing, they are prevented from doing. They are employed within hospital and a wide variety of community settings, often working as part of a health and/or social care team.

It is approved by The Health and Care Professions Council and is accredited by the College of Occupational Therapists and the World Federation of Occupational Therapists.



On successful completion of the programme, graduates are eligible to apply for registration with the Health and Care Professions Council (the UK regulatory body) as an Occupational Therapist.



Graduates can obtain employment in a diverse range of areas, having the opportunity to work with disadvantaged and marginalised groups within hospital and community settings, charitable organisations and private practice.
