Organizational Unit Overview
The Department of Occupational Therapy offers both an entry-level Master of Science in Occupational Therapy (MSOT) program and an entry-level Doctor of Occupational Therapy (OTD) program. The MSOT and OTD programs operate concurrently and jointly admit a cohort of 26 students each year. All students are initially admitted at the master's level. At the conclusion of the second semester, approximately one-third of the MSOT cohort transition into the entry-level OTD program following mentorship and advising from faculty.
The Department includes five dedicated teaching and research laboratories totaling 4,600 square feet, equipped with supplies and state-of-the-art technology. Advanced instructional resources such as 3D printing, classroom video capture, an Anatomage table, a virtual reality lab, and a fully integrated video management system support innovative teaching and learning. The Department also operates a pro-bono Student-Run Clinic where MSOT and OTD students evaluate and treat clients as part of their coursework.
The Department is an integral part of one of the largest and most dynamic health sciences colleges in North Carolina. Our college brings together a broad group of disciplines including Communication Sciences and Disorders, Physical Therapy, Nutrition Sciences, and Addictions and Rehabilitation Studies, creating a collaborative environment that fosters innovation and interdisciplinary learning. The Health Sciences campus also houses programs in medicine, dental medicine, and nursing. Faculty and students benefit from robust interprofessional education opportunities, cross-disciplinary partnerships, and a strong culture of teamwork that supports professional development and meaningful community engagement. A health sciences library is located within the same building and includes a dedicated librarian who supports faculty and students in scholarly work. Adjacent to the Health Sciences campus is the East Carolina University (ECU) Health Medical Center, a 974-bed Level I trauma center that provides numerous opportunities for clinical collaboration.
East Carolina University is the fourth largest of the 16 institutions within the University of North Carolina system and enrolls approximately 29,000 students. The university is a major employer in Greenville, North Carolina (population approximately 95,000).
