Jumpstart Your Journey To Doctor
We are thrilled to announce the launch of a new online OTD Distance Pathway with our first cohort in fall 2024. Click through our web pages for more information. We are currently accepting applications for fall 2025.
The Doctor of Occupational Therapy (OTD) program at Western New England University is responding to the national and international call for changing the way healthcare is delivered, and the way healthcare professionals are educated. Rapidly changing healthcare systems are demanding more of entry-level practitioners. The Western New England University OTD curriculum is meeting this call by providing academic preparation beyond a generalist level, including advanced graduate knowledge, skills, and fieldwork/experiential opportunities.
The entry-level OTD is a three-year program completed over 8 semesters, including summer sessions. It is designed for students who will have a bachelor’s degree and all prerequisite courses completed prior to beginning the program. We also offer 3+3 bachelor's to OTD pathways for WNE undergraduate students.
