OCT 6731 - Capstone Experience 1

Hours: 4

Students will prepare for and initiate an in-depth experience in one of the following areas: clinical practice skills, research skills, administration, leadership, program and policy development, advocacy, education, or theory development. Students will have the opportunity to apply OT practice to different populations and cultures based on an expanded view of OTs role in healthcare. The experiential component of the capstone experience will be consistent with the objectives of the student’s capstone project and provide the application piece of their capstone project in order to enhance the field of occupational therapy.
