Ã÷ÐÇ°ËØÔing at Ã÷ÐÇ°ËØÔ and completing my two community work placements has given me a huge boost to my confidence
As a research department you will get the best minds in Occupational Therapy teaching you.
I got my undergraduate degree in special education, and loved working with kids. But I just felt there is something missing, and I found occupational therapy through working in a school.
I was attracted to Occupational Therapy because I used to be a teacher, and decided I wanted a change of pace.
The course was really well structured, and I learned so much; knowledge that I'm still using and imparting to others 25 years later.
