Occupational Therapy is a health profession dedicated to assisting individuals to achieve their well-being through engagement in occupations. Our curriculum is centered on an interdisciplinary and ecological complexity science model of education. An occupational therapist practicing within the spirit of an ecological complexity model views the client as a human organism, not just as an indication for therapeutic intervention; understands the client is embedded in a variety of systems – neurobiological, familiar, social, and physical – that continuously recalibrate themselves; and appreciates that small interventions with the appropriate level of challenge can have significant results.

The Master of Science with a concentration in Occupational Therapy at Le Moyne College is designed to educate national and international professionals who can actively contribute to the profession through service, scholarship, and leadership, promoting occupational justice in local and global communities. Our program focuses on the development of an ecologically global forward-thinking attitude and leadership. Le Moyne Occupational Therapy graduates are proficiently skilled healthcare professionals who exemplify excellence in their creativity, collaboration and communication promoting respect and service to their clients and for the field.
