The Master of Science degree in rehabilitation science provides physical and occupational therapists with an evidence-based and clinically-focused curriculum intended to increase knowledge of and exposure to practice skills and areas. The program teaches currently practicing clinicians about the specialty areas within clinical practice, the research know-how to further advance the field, and the leadership skills needed to succeed in any setting.

Specifically, students will enhance their clinical decision-making skills by increasing their knowledge in specialty areas of clinical practice. They will learn advanced research skills that will increase the amount and quality of clinic-based research they conduct. Finally, students will develop their leadership skills as they prepare to work and lead in new and emerging practice areas.

The program courses are taught by faculty with therapy expertise using hands-on learning in a face-to-face format and give opportunities for off-campus clinical observation experiences. The program can be completed in 12 months, beginning in the fall semester each year.
