Special Opportunities

Join: Our campus hosts an active Child and Adolescent Studies Association as well as a chapter of Tau Upsilon Alpha honors society, the national organization for human services.

Experience: You won’t just learn from our knowledgeable faculty — you’ll apply what you learn from them to get hands-on experience of your own. Internships are an integral part of the education journey. Faculty help students find placement opportunities but students are also encouraged to find their own and have worked in occupational therapy facilities, shelters, hospitals and schools.
