Teaching & Learning
Independent study is a crucial part of learning at university and you will be required to undertake many hours of self-directed research and reading, and preparation and writing of assessments. Your course is delivered through a number of modules, which will help you to plan your time and establish a study routine. Outside of your lectures, workshops and tutorials, a range of support is available to assist with your independent study. Our subject-specific librarians will be on hand to direct you to the specialist learning and study-skill resources. Youll also be assigned an academic advisor to give you tailored feedback and support.
Career Prospects
The need for qualified occupational therapists is rising, and as a registered occupational therapist you will be able to work in a range of settings. The majority of occupational therapists work within the NHS in acute and community settings and in social services, while others find careers in the private and voluntary sectors. You could also work as a mental health practitioner or become a researcher in occupational therapy.
