USA Provides a Unique Opportunity to Become Both a Physical and an Occupational Therapist.
Because of the interdisciplinary nature of the curriculum in the Master of Occupational Therapy (MOT) and Doctor of Physical Therapy (DPT) programs, you can earn two entry-level degrees in a total of three years and four months through the Dual Degree option! Investing in the Dual Degree option will enable you to increase your skills and make yourself more marketable.
Why would I want to become a dually licensed practitioner? USA is the only university in the country that gives you the unique option to become both a OT and a PT. Students interested in the program must have a passion for both professions and a drive to use this extensive clinical knowledge to offer their patients a more holistic and all encompassing rehabilitative approach.
Graduates from the Dual Degree program have used their education to become leaders in the rehabilitative world by taking their in-depth understanding of both professions to create new and innovative ways to utilize their education.
