MSc Occupational Therapy (Pre-registration)

The programme adopts an enquiry-based learning ethos focused on student-centred independent learning, problem solving and decision making; the course addresses straightforward case scenarios that develop baseline theoretical and therapeutic understandings and complex scenarios addressing service development needs; integral to the programme are the practice placements: students undertake 1 level 2 (7 week) block in year 1; and 1 level 3 (7 week) block and 1 level 3 (8 week) block in year 2; the placements are non-M level aspects of the professional practice modules with a pass/fail mark and with level 1, 2 and 3 outcomes.
