Course Overview

The BSc (Hons) Occupational Therapy at Bristol, UWE is a undergraduate programme designed for students passionate about improving patient care.

The strong practical focus, our close links with employers, and the experience of our academic team, mean that a high percentage of graduates are in work or further study after six months. Why study occupational therapy? Occupational therapists recognise that being able to perform meaningful, everyday activities is crucial to people's health and wellbeing. Physical and mental illness, impairment and ageing can turn these occupations into challenges that reduce independence and undermine people's identity.
