New Doctoral Specialization in Occupational Therapy

We are pleased to offer a new Movement Sciences and Education/Kinesiology doctoral study specialization in Occupational Therapy. The specialization was created jointly with the faculty in Columbia University's highly esteemed Occupational Therapy Programs, and will allow students who already have a Masters in OT and clinical experience to gain from combining study in both areas. Students will take course work in both Movement Sciences and Occupational Therapy, and conduct doctoral research under the sponsorship of the occupational therapy faculty and related to the field of Occupational Therapy.
