Why study Bachelor of Occupational Therapy (Pass)?
Occupational therapists are health professionals trained to assist people of all ages overcome factors which limit their ability to function in certain "occupational roles". These limiting factors may have been caused by injury or illness; psychological or emotional difficulties; develop-mental delay; or the effects of ageing. Occupational therapists consider individual strengths, disabilities, goals, and social and environmental resources, then work to optimise clients' functioning ability and quality of life.
The honours program is a modified program of study during years 3 and 4, focussing on research skills. Offers to enter honours are made at the end of year 2 based on academic merit.
