Occupational Therapy

About this course

Occupational therapy is a healthcare profession concerned with enabling people to participate in the everyday activities that give their lives meaning and structure. The word occupation refers not to work in the narrow sense but to any purposeful activity, whether dressing, cooking, working, or engaging in a hobby. When illness, injury, disability, or social circumstance creates a barrier to participation, occupational therapists work with individuals to identify what matters to them and to find ways through or around those barriers, adapting environments, developing skills, and providing assistive technology and other support. This three-year full-time programme at London South Bank University includes a foundation year, providing an additional year of preparation for students whose prior qualifications or experience would benefit from supported entry into a health sciences degree.
