Why choose UNC-CH's Division of Occupational Science?


In our students' words……

"I was "sold" on the innovative curriculum that emphasizes the importance of students and OTs as change agents and scholars, small class size, vast opportunities for students to volunteer or participate in, and the openness of the faculty".

"One reason I think potential students should consider UNC is because of its focus on occupation-centered practice. In combination with that, the program at UNC is innovative, focused on the future direction of the field and has vision for the future".

"GREAT education for low tuition"

"…..UNC's faculty - to have a program where the professors have an ideal balance between being consumers of research/best practice and also being creators of evidenced-based practice....and passionate about being educators - aligning their values of occupation-centered practice with the ways in which they teach in the classroom."

"The way in which the program is structured....having two semesters of classes with Field Work (FW) experiences that support what is being taught in the classroom. And - that our first Level II FW is completed at the mid-point of the program so that there is time to reflect and digest what we have experienced in our sites with our peers and professors".
