Mission Statements

REHABILITATION SCIENCES

The mission of the rehabilitation sciences program is to prepare students to enter professional graduate programs of study in health sciences and produce culturally competent students with foundational knowledge in injury evaluation techniques and therapeutic interventions to improve the quality of life and well-being of people in Utah and the world.

This preprofessional program prepares students to enter professional graduate programs such as athletic training, occupational therapy, physical therapy, physician assistant programs, chiropractic, or medicine.

OCCUPATIONAL THERAPY ASSISTANT (OTA)

The occupational therapy assistant program empowers students from all backgrounds to become compassionate, skilled practitioners who enhance health, well-being, and quality of life across communities.

Through accessible education, collaborative clinical partnerships, and experiential learning, we foster meaningful connections, promote fairness, and support our students in developing innovative, evidence-based, and client-centered solutions for participation in everyday living. Together, we advance occupational therapy and create a lasting impact on the lives we serve.
