Overview

Students in the Occupational Therapy program from University of Scranton learn the physical, psychological and cognitive foundations of human performance, and gain the skills to help people who have limitations caused by illness, injury, developmental delays or normal aging.

Key Facts

According to the Bureau of Labor Statistics, employment of occupational therapists is expected to increase 24 percent between 2016 and 2026, much faster than average for all occupations.

The median annual wage for occupational therapists was $84,270 in May 2018.

The demand for occupational therapists is increasing due to the aging Baby Boomer population and rising rates of people diagnosed with illnesses and disabilities, such as Alzheimer’s, Autism and Parkinson’s.
