Columbia Campus

LR’s Master's of Science in Occupational Therapy in Columbia, S.C. will pause admissions beginning fall 2025. The Hickory, N.C. campus will increase enrollment beginning fall 2025. Both locations offer great classroom and lab environments and a supportive cohort of occupational therapy students and faculty.

Occupational therapy practitioners are skilled professionals whose education includes the study of human growth and development across the lifespan with specific emphasis on the social, emotional and physiological effects of illness, injury or disability.

Occupational therapy is the only profession that helps people across their lifespan to do the things they want and need to do through the therapeutic use of daily activities (occupations) to enhance quality of life.
