Occupational Therapy at Brunel is one of the largest, longest established and most highly regarded programmes in the world. In fact, they're the original ‘London School of Occupational Therapy’ which was founded in 1934.
The Occupational Therapy (Pre-registration) MSc provides a master’s level route for students to become an occupational therapist. The course integrates theory with practice. The Mary Seacole Building is purpose-built for occupational therapy and physiotherapy. The rooms reflect the type of clinical environment that they will work in as an occupational therapist. Students will learn their practical skills at so that they’ll be confident and experienced in time for their first placement.
Brunel's lecturers are still active in their field and have close links with colleagues in the NHS, social service and voluntary organisations around London. This means that students will have the opportunity to do their 1,000 hours of practice placement at a variety of settings including some of the top hospitals in the world such as the National Hospital for Neurology at Queens Square and Imperial Hospital.
The NHS Values are shaped by patients, public and staff have helped develop this expression of values that inspire passion in the NHS and that should underpin everything it does.

The NHS values provide common ground for co-operation to achieve shared aspirations, at all levels of the NHS.
The programme is accredited by the Royal College of Occupational Therapists (RCOT), the Health and Care Professions Council (HCPC) and the US Accreditation Council for Occupational Therapy Education (ACOTE). It is recognised by the World Federation of Occupational Therapy.
