Students complete two Level I fieldwork experiences in conjunction with the didactic portion of the program, and two Level II fieldworks following the didactic coursework.
Level I fieldworks include 40 hours at the clinical site; scheduling will be arranged to best accommodate the specific site and student. Level I fieldwork may take place on-campus two to three times per semester on Friday.
Level II fieldworks include 12 weeks of full-time (40/hours per week) in-depth clinical experiences consistent with the Accreditation Council for Occupational Therapy Education (ACOTE) standards. Level II fieldworks are routinely scheduled for full-time during normal business hours; however, part-time fieldwork is an option pending availability of a fieldwork site. Utilizing the part-time fieldwork option would extend the length of the curriculum.
Additional information regarding all fieldwork can be found in the College Catalog Course Description section.
