US News and World Report ranks the Department among the top-10 programs nationally and CSU designates the Department as a Program of Research and Scholarly Excellence. The Department’s mission, to optimize human performance and participation in everyday occupations and contests across the lifespan, guides our research, teaching and service. Currently we offer two entry-level programs, MOT and MS, as well as a PhD in Occupation and Rehabilitation Science. In 2022, we will transition our entry degree to OTD. Consistent with CSU’s culture of excellence, faculty in the Department have a strong commitment to integrative scholarship and innovative programming. We support our research and community engagement with intra- and extramural funding. Students engage in research situated in faculty members’ labs and community sites, including the Department’s two centers: Center for Community Partnerships and the Assistive Technology Resource Center.
