MPH/Master of Science in Occupational Therapy (MSOT)
The MPH/MSOT dual degree program is not currently accepting additional applications for future academic terms.
Students from this program earn a Master of Public Health (MPH) degree and a Master of Science in Occupational Therapy (MSOT) degree from the Washington University School of Medicine. The program of study requires 123 credit units taken over the course of three and a half years.
With the MSOT degree, students will be eligible to sit for the National Board for Certification in Occupational Therapy examination to become practicing occupational therapists.
MPH/MSOT dual degree graduates will fill a significant need locally, nationally, and internationally for health care professionals who are trained to address issues of prevention, participation, everyday functional performance, habilitation, and quality of life in persons with chronic disease, disability, or sociocultural disadvantage. Graduates will be prepared to work in a diverse array of settings, including academia, community agencies, government institutions, and nonprofit organizations; they will assume leadership roles in public policy, urban planning, and advocacy.
