Overview

The Occupational Science and Technology program at the University of Wisconsin Milwaukee allows you the chance to pursue a variety of career options. A flexible educational path combined with a blend of elective courses will prepare you to work in different health and human service settings.

You will also be particularly well prepared for graduate study in Occupational Therapy and other disability related disciplines. Acceptance and completion of the BS Occupational Science & Technology does not guarantee admission into the MS Occupational Therapy Program.

Occupational Science & Technology combines…

“various components of health, disability and occupation that contribute to full participation in life”

With the knowledge and skills you gain in the occupational science and technology degree program you will have unlimited possibilities. Activity therapist/director, behavioral health technician, design and accessibility consultant, risk control specialist, research assistant, and other related health careers are just some of the many careers you could explore.

Graduates of the BS Occupational Science and Technology often pursue advanced degrees in occupational therapy or other rehabilitation professions, the social sciences and some areas of science, technology, biomedical engineering and math (STEM) disciplines.
